Its saves as a compressed zip. At the end of the file name it just has zip.

You'll need to rename it with a .wba extension, then you can just dbl click and it should install.

You probably have Windows XP SP2. It automatically changes the last three letters of the filename from wba to zip because it is a compressed file. However in order to auto install the Windowblind you have to manually change those last three letters back from zip to wba. You may want to open Windows Explorer, click on the Tools menu, click on Folder Options, chose the View tab and uncheck the "Hide Extrensions for Known Filetypes" this will allow you to "See" the file extention. Hope this helps.
