Default Download on desktopok, but can't open file

I'm on a Mac OSX4.5. I use the old free version 4.08 with no problems. I want to update to the newer 4.09. I can upload the it but when I try to open it to install it, my system trys to use Mac EXCEL (which I do not have). I tried to unstuff it with Stuffit Deluxe and that doesn't work either. How can I open this file?
Thanks,
Debbi

Use Safari to downld LimeWire not Explorer. Explorer is no good at downlding dmg files. In fact, Explorer is now way out of date & can't cope with many of the newer internet protocols!

Does this ring a bell LimeWire.dmg thinks its an Excell or QuickTime document (or something else)
