Bleh, that's bizarre, I've never had that. Tried reinstalling?

I saw this and thought it sounded all too familiar 
So I went and tried i out myself... and the only thing I can think of is that you have a computer which doesn't know what zip files are ^^
This may sound highly patronising or it may just sound really stupid... but is it possible that the computer in question is just really old? And doesnt have winzip or an equivalent? 
I think the problem may be that you download the file and you have to unzip it before you can use it. My old computer ...well its old ^^ It doesn't recognise zip files to say the least ... and as such I get the 'open with' prompt because it doesnt know what to do with the zip file.
Same problem when I somehow managed to get it to install, because it installed it incorrectly, leading to the same problem and the same prompt appearing.
Likewise on my newer computer which actually does recognise zip file I can unzip, install and load the programme in next to no time with no problems.
This may not be the problem, it just sounded familiar enough for me to figure it was worth mentioning

Ok, it's only one of two things..
1) Are you 100% sure you're trying to execute the .exe ?
2) You're trying to run a .zip file, and your machine doesn't know the file type, download this.
Hopefully either one of those will sort it.
