The included copy of "cometes.dat" is probably outdated.

In the comets window, click "comet elements" at the bottom and it
should download a fresh copy from the source at Harvard.  It includes 
C/2004 Q2 (Machholz)

If I misunderstood and the download from Harvard is the part you're
having a problem with, you can get it directly at 
<http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/iau/Ephemerides/Comets/Soft06Cmt.txt>.
Just rename it cometes.dat and put it in your ..ciel\cat\planet folder.
