Default VisioViewer not working

You must apply the Service Pack, see

I'm using IE 8 on a WinXP SP3 machine with lots of memory.

I just downloaded VisioView 2007, in order to read a .vsd file. Just
before that, I had downloaded, installed, and removed the VisioView 2003
reader. I installed the 2003 version first because I'm running Office
2003 on my machine, but when I opened the file, IE just showed a red x. So
I removed it in the Add/Removed section of the Control Panel and
downloaded and installed VisioView 2007, and got the same problem, a red
x in the upper left.

I don't know if the file I'm trying to open is bad, or if there is
something not quite right with my IE settings.
I'm assuming the .vsd file is alright, because it's on Sue Mosher's
website; she must have thousands of downloads by now.
