[Gimp-user] Gimp 2.8 and Windows 8

[zenashaker <forums gimpusers com>]

Ok I just got this computer with windows 8!
I've downloaded GIMP 3 times (2 different sources) and each time I click open
(there is no run option) my mouse turns into the little loading symbol and then
nothing happens. It shows up in task manager as running, but nothing comes up at
all. Even when I end task and try to delete the file it doesn't work.
Help I really need to use GIMP :(
