I had much trouble trying to get MS worldwide telescope to download and install also. The instructions are a little hard to follow sometimes however I got it to run but it does not display the stars on my pentium 4 with XP, Windows 98-2e or windows 2000 or any of my other 4 similar computers. I have OpenGL 3D and direct X on a SiS 661 integrated display. I tried many tricks without success so abandonned it.
Later I got an Acer "el cheapo" lap top with Vista Home basic. I down loaded and installed the program and it worked just as described. It also works on that computer under Windows XP which I have installed under dual boot facilities (complicated to set up though). Obviously it does not work on all platforms.
I have looked at the program and tried many of the features but I find Stellarium gives a better looking display and has more useful features.
