You said in an earlier post you are using PSE5... I just tried it and it works, whereas in PSE4 a message indicates 'this plug-in is not compatible with this version of Elements'. (Latest compatible ACR 4.1).
To check the different steps:
1 - downloading in a given repertory (seems ok)
2 - unzipping the file to get the file 'Camera Raw.8BI'
3 - checking PSE5 is closed
4 - finding the right repertory C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 5.0\Plug-Ins\ File format
There you locate the older 'Camera Raw.8bi' which you rename
5 - going back to the former folder where you unzipped the new file, copy and paste in the above location to replace the old one
6 - start PSE5 again.
7 - Use the same procedure as before to open a Raw file. For new users, you should use 'Open As', select 'Camera raw...' in the menu.
8 - The new ACR versions since 4.0 are a little longer to open a file, a little patience...
To check the ACR version, it's dated 13/11/2007, with 10202 bytes.
