Perhaps you aren't authorised to access the site you are trying to download
the codec from. See:

I have no solution to offer, Solkeys, but just wanted to say that I
think it's a common occurrence. I'm in the same boat. For whatever
reason mine never worked either (something about codec also) but I
must admit I never really worked at it because the competitive product
runs without any problem.
