Why not send folks directly to: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/B...n&categoryid=2 ?  
I believe that's a valuable suggestion, and it applies also to the FAQ on the SereneScreen site, and elsewhere.

The bottom line would be that, the easier you make it for "joe user" to find out if he/she has the right prerequisites, and THEN the easier you make it for him/her to find and install the latest version, the fewer support problems you will have.

There are lots of alternatives for "where to send them".
