That's just the standard PE header version fields, which isn't really
useful.  The meaningful version is stored as a resource and can be
viewed in explorer: right click, Properties, Version tab, "Product
Version".  It should be between 4 and 6, as explained here:

I don't recall which minimum version setup.exe was coded to require, but
it seems that not even having IE3 (comctl32 v4.7) is probably going to
be a problem.

Yes, it's upx packed as Dave said.  But that might not tell you the
whole picture, as I seem to recall that it loads comctl32.dll
dynamically, so it wouldn't show up that way anyway.
