Strange, It just comes up asking me what program I want to use to run it.

Either it lost the .bin/.hqx suffix, or it lost the resource fork. Try dropping it on StuffIt and see what happens.

What browser did you use to download it? Those files are MacBinary encoded, and most PCs can't figure out what to do with that file. Downloading on a modern Mac browser should be okay. Safari (on a Mac) should have no trouble with it.
Peace,
