I don't know if the version has been updated. I got it from another source as suggested. That worked fine, so close it as far as I'm concerned.

Title:
  Incorrect version of wubi.exe on http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-
  ubuntu/windows-installer

Status in Ubuntu Website Content:
  Confirmed
Status in Wubi, Windows Ubuntu Installer:
  Confirmed
Status in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I am new to ubuntu and thought I'd try it out. I am installing it
  alongside windows xp media centre edition 32 bit on an acer aspire
  laptop using the download here:

  http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/windows-installer

  When I download and run the install, the installation fails just as it
  gets to completion. The error says to check a log file in the local
  settings folder. This log file finishes with the lines shown below.

  I think the installation should be able to find everything from the
  web download and install. What am I doing wrong?

  Thanks,
  Charlie
