I had the exact same problem here, with the installer that downloaded via Adobe's standard processes. The installer simply disappeared after it got to 100% with no error or explanation.

I solved it with Paul Schuesler's suggestion, of using this file:

ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/AdbeRdr90_en_US_Std.exe

Just paste that address directly into your web browser, download and run. It was the AdbeRdr90_en_US.exe file in the same directory that seemed to be causing the problems.
