Their main thesis (which echoes everyone's responses) is that you really need to allow people to conduct the primary action - in your case download the toolbar - try it out, understand its value, and then register. If your company requires that you get some information before the download then try to minimize it by just asking for the name and email and once the person has downloaded the product and used it for a bit, shoot them an email to ask for more info. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
