When I launch the game, all that comes up is a HTML screen with nothing but a background image of Sam sitting at a desk, a useless "sign up for our newsletter" box (no submit button), and most importantly the following error message:

"An error has occured in the script on his page.
Line:0
Char:
Error: Automation server can't create object
Code:0
URL:file://C:\Documents and Settings\((my user name))\Local Settings\Temp\HTMC5.tmp"

Looking around in the game's files, I can see that there's supposed to be a full page here that serves as the launcher for the actual game; but due to this error I can't get past the currently useless un-closeable window.

According to a quick google search, that error can mean you have outdated or corrupt script components. Try reinstalling from: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=C717D943-7E4B-4622-86EB-95A22B832CAA&displaylang=en

If that one doesn't work, try this one: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=47809025-D896-482E-A0D6-524E7E844D81&displaylang=en

The second has a higher version number but a lower release date. Weird.
