windows 8 Unable to download BlackBerry Desktop Software on Windows 8

[News Bot]

I cannot get BB Desktop to install on my new Windows 8 lap file unzipped itself; asked for the preferred language; Install shield Wizard starts to run. Then I get the below message in a box called "Windows Installer".

I click OK and the whole process has come to an end with nothing being installed and the win zip window slowly closing down.  

 Any help would be much appreciated.

 Thanks
