Read the fine print!  ;-)

What you download is not the browser 'per se', but the whole
"newdeal" package, which includes the browser. You fill out
a form, so they e-mail you the decompression password and
"take it from there" ... (that's as far as I've gotten - when I find
some time, I hope to actually try it out ...).

Joe.
