I think you are thinking of the wrong 'there'. The URL I posted gives instructions on installing and using the right IME. It isn't a link to the IME itself (mostly because what IME you need and how to get it depend on the OS you have and whether you are using Microsoft Office or not).

True, I just remember going to the Microsoft site before (on one of my computers a long time ago) but I use a Japanese computer now so I don't worry about it, honestly.

And you got me using the wrong there. I had planned to say something else but switched before I finished typing.....it happens when you're in a hurry.
