Ok, sounds like you have either d/l the wrong version of the database(should be the "generic" or "comma delimited one) or you have a bad d/l of the right one.
I just went and looked at the folder where I have my version of the database on my PC and counting the "readme" file there are 13 files in that folder, all are part of the proper database.
