Problem Installing Forge for 1.6.2 on Windows 8?

Hey everyone, I've been stuck for hours trying to install the new Forge installer but nothing happens. First the file would always download/open as a .rar file, but after doing some research I was told to open with the Java file javaw.exe, so Id click open with, and go into the Java folder>jre7>bin>javaw.exe. After that the icon changed to the java logo like everyone elses did after downloading the file, but when I try and open it, literally nothing happens... Its very frustrating!

 

Has anyone else had this problem, or does anyone know how to fix it? Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated!

    This isn't building better software, its trying to grab a place in the commit list of a highly visible github project.

    I forgot about that program. Please write up a tutorial and full description on how to use it.

    I'll toss it into the EAQ's/Main release page.

    I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

    I have edit access to the EAQ, so I'll do it myself ;)
