Strange. I tried it both from my Mac at home and from my PC at work and it downloaded (and opened) fine. Does anybody else have a problem opening it?

It initially didn't work for me. When I downloaded it to my desktop, and then tried to open it from my desktop, it did work.

OK, now anybody has a Wiki site somewhere so we could keep doing this and not make it too unwieldy? Is there a good, easy to use multi-lingual dictionary app somewhere?
