SD/CF card directory structure.

\ (Root)
|
 - DCIM
   |
    - 100PENTX (Where the pictures end up in a *D/Ds/DL)

The update must be in the Root directory for the camera to recognize 
that it's there.

The exe file that you've downloaded is a self extracting archive.  It 
must be run to extract the binary update.  Only the binary needs to be 
in the root directory.

On a windows XP or Win2K computer it would look like this, leaving out 
extraneous entries.

Desktop
|
 -My Computer
  |
   + Removable Drive (X:) [what ever your box assigns as the drive 
letter] (This is the Root directory of the card.)
