after you uninstall gtalk, if you try to install it again, it gave installation problem for me too.
go to program files -> google -> shift+delete the google talk directory and now run the installer again, it will work.

did u dl it with firefox?
just copy paste the file location from the dl history page under properties of the file nd paste it to new tab nd hit enter.
nd it ll re-dl the file and the exe will become usable.
It happens to me in firefox while dling mosy .exe files....it gives a useless file nd the re-dl just takes one sec the the exe will be usable.

i wonder why its not happening with ny other kinda files???only exe files..
and opera is gud at it...i use opera to dl exe files coz firefox may sometimes result in dumb files.
