Strange, if you're downloading it from the computer with the virus maybe it's a virus blocking it?
Here is an alternate site you can download it from, it is safe, Cnet's Download.com. Not sure but I don't think you even have to register.
Clicky here.
Here's some others you can try, I know they're legit and safe to download, but don't know if they will scan on boot up.
