Swfobject not installing

i tried installing swfobject, downloaded the v2.2 express install, took down my firewall, changed my flash settings to allow it to connect to fpdownload.macromedia.com, and ran the installer on my windows 7 64 machine in firefox, IE, and directly in flash, and nothing happens, just an empty browser window. in firefox it says its transferring data from fpdownload.macromedia.com, but when i click on a different tab and come back it says its done, but nothing happened.

v1.2 is available without an express installer, but it doesn’t seem to be working for me either, but i might be doing something wrong, im just typing in the swf file name and clicking generate, copying and pasting the code into an html document in the same folder and running it, i dont know what else to do.
