iTunes 10.7 will not install on PC?

When I download iTunes 10.7 and try to install it, it asks for a temp file called IXP283.TMP which does not xits on my PC.

As an alternate, it asks to find a file named "iTunes.msi".

When I browse and find the file it gives a message that says "iTunes.msi is not a valid installation file.

Locate iTunes.msi to install"?????

Results; no iTunes 10.7, unable to download iOS 6 to my ipod? Anyone who had similar problem? Did you find a solution?

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):

(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)

(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.

(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:

(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
