    In which case I guessed correctly and the drivers page I linked was the right one.

    They're all copies/mirrors so you only need one of them. Just in case any of the links don't work.

    You should be able to extract it somewhere (like a folder in my documents) and that basically uncompresses it and then you should be able to install (if there's an .exe file) from the folder you extract to.

    Strange, it should only be the drivers. Not that open office is a bad thing (free alternative to Microsoft Office). Maybe there was a tick box somewhere to install/not install open office in addition. I don't know, is there a read me file in the folder you extracted? If the drivers have successfully installed you should be able to plug in the dongle and tell it to search for driver automatically.
