Weird Error....

Hope this is the right place.

Anytime I download a KBT airplane the installer gives me this error:

Any ideas if it can be fixed?  I'd really like to have these planes :P :-/

I'm not sure if it's the same in Vista, but in XP, you can right-click on the .exe file, go to properties, and then click on the compatability tab. There you can "trick" the executable into thinking it's running on a system with an older version of Windows.
