getting around install with py2.4 not found in registry

I'm running on WinXP (32 bit), and in the process of moving from python 2.2
to 2.4 and trying to install the mxDateTime library

Have downloaded egenix-mx-base-3.1.2.win32-py2.4.exe

When trying to install, receive error that "Python version 2.4 required,
which was not found in the registry."

Based on another post in the mailing list, I tried to open the exe in
winZip, but it failed to open saying "start of central directory not found:
Zip file corrupt".

What's the correct method to install?  Can I fake the appropriate registry
entry with regedit?

thanks
Craig
