I was using Firefox, if you are using Internet Explorer check for a blinking yellow bar at the top of the webpage, you'll have to allow the download from there.

Does the installation download completely? If so then uninstall the current installation Gimp first.

Just to be certain: you have Windows and you are downloading the Windows installation file, right?

Don't run after download. Just save it to your Desktop. Uninstall the previous install of GIMP.
