I have no explanation... I haven't used Windows for years so these
mysteries are beyond me.  

I just looked at Google 
( search terms "thunderbird dictionaries download windows" )
and found this page

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/thunderbird/dictionaries.html

which seems to suggest that you can drag and drop the download URL
directly into Thunderbird itself using its extensions manager.
