First are you downloading the correct version?

Through the FAQ link I went to a page where I was able to select Nokia and then choose the 9300.

I then had two choices. a .jad and a .jar file.

Always choose the .jar file for a 9300. For some reason, .jads seem to cause problems.

The .jar file was 283kb.

I used another device (my Nokia N800) to download via WiFi and then Bluetoothed it to my 9300.

On running the .jar it went into install mode and reported that it installed correctly version 0.9.

I then went and ran it and it came up with an splash screen asking me to run a test.

Both tests ran correctly and then it prompted for login or registration.

Are you sure you have the right version, the right file and enough memory to install it?

Frankly be careful of so-called "free" services like this They must make money somehow and it is usually by delivering advertising content to you and all your friends.

When you do get it working please write a review of this software and service.
