Im getting a 404 when running the installer when it tries to access mailscanner.info to download the script

I just tried it on one of our servers and did not have any problem. Could you post the full error message here?

im guessing the route to or from mailscanner is blocked somewhere, although it doesnt appear to be local on our network

We do occasionally see this. I guess you'll need to just keep trying until it clears up.
