Have you tried the one from the site above?  This is the download
I used.  It didn't go smoothly as I noted before but at least I was
able to get it working.  If it doesn't seem to hang until the part
where it asks you for some environment variables or other
settings then you should be able to work with it.  The installer
does seem awfully slow compared to most Windows installs.
ActivePython and ActivePerl are around 12 MB .msi files and
they run through in like less than 2 minutes.  I don't know why
this installer creeks along but the whole time it made me nervous. :)
