I am having the same problem - and this is NOT the Corrupt Cabinet File problem. 

Windows 2000. Downloading the Free Acrobat Reader 5.whatever Tried downloading from adobe.com, tucows.com and the ftp site. It always downloads fully (9.94 MB with searchable PDF option). Downloaded onto Desktop. 

When running the install: No anti-virus software. Tried right after download, tried with all files closed, tried after a reboot. 

Message box: (Top) C:\DOCUME~1\R4161~1~DRY\LOCALS~1\Temp\prtD~tmp\pftw1.pkg "The system cannot find the path specified." OK selection box 

After pressing OK, Message box: (Top) PackageForTheWeb Error (Yield sign with excl. pt.) "Unable to create the cabinet file!" OK selection box 

All this time there is another message box: (Top) Unpacking Acrobat Reader... "Reading package..." Cancel selection box 

It closes automatically after "Unable to create cabinet file!" and OK is selected.
