You may want to try the direct download site:

WLM automatically copies all your WM accounts, settings,
and saved emails. It doesn't always get the contacts, but
there is a contacts import function you can use. If you
use the option to sign in to a Hotmail account, it will copy
your Hotmail contacts and keep those synchronized.
You cannot uninstall WM, it is part of the Vista OS.
