Some advice:

1. Check to see the download completed properly (ie that the file has
not be truncated). It seems that some clients may not warn you if the
download failed for some reason. FSMSetup.exe v1.11 should be exactly
1,062,400 bytes (right click the file name in explorer and click
properties to get the exact file size).

2. Scan your computer (and the download) with an up to date and
effective virus scanner, there are a number of viruses that exhibit
these symptoms.

If you are confident that you do not have virus infection, the file
FSMSetup.exe is actually a self extracting ZIP file. You should be
able to open it with WINZIP, Powerarchiver, PKUNZIP etc (if you have
one), extract the files to a temporary directory, and run the
setup.exe file. That will bypass the issue that you seem to have with
the self extractor.

If the file cannot be opened with ZIP, it is a pretty sure sign it has
been corrupted (even if the length is correct).
