Post endless plug-in install loop (possibly solved)

1) Run your browser "As Administrator". You should be able to do so from the start menu or by setting attribute from the file options.
2) Add *.gametap.com to your trusted sites list

Same problem here, in both IE and Firefox, and even uninstalling and clearing my cache *and* my registry didn't help when I went to reinstall. Tried to run as administrator, with no luck.

In Firefox, I get the infinite loop of asking to install the plugin (version 4.3.0.57). In IE, I get the screen that asks me to specify the download location for games, and then the ActiveX plugin install screen, and then the progress bar climbs to 100% and I get a dialog saying "Please close all windows to continue" ... and when I do that and reopen, and go to "My Games", the loop starts all over again.

In effect, the GameTap plugin does NOT install the GameTap Web Player - it's not showing up in my installed programs list, and the file location isn't present in either "Program Files" or "Program Files (x86)".

Something's badly wrong with the system.
