Windows XP already has Flash 6. Therefore it cannot install something that's already there.

Well why would it not let me install it and say that it can not install flash player 6?

It also tells me that it has to install it to run the program.

Do you know of a way to get around this and use the game?

Errors like this can be caused when you try to install something from a Limited User Account in Windows XP. Therefore install from an Administrator Account.

But according to other reviewers on Amazon.com, this program and its sister programs haven't been physically updated for a while, (considering as it wants to install Flash 6 which was released in 2002 and comes as standard with XP Service Pack 2 anyway which dates August 2004) so I suspect it may have XP incompatibility issues.
