It's on Softonic: Microsoft Pinball For Windows Vista & 7 - Download
Although it's listed for Vista and 7, I have installed it and it works fine on 8.

How do you find out where it gets downloaded so I can install it.
Your link just brings up an install Softonic downloader and a whole pile of adware - for example THIS (screenshot enc) when I execute the program.
What's this "Speed analysis" thing -- and it seems you can't uncheck the boxes.
Now I can see how people's computers can become riddled with ad/crap/spy-ware or even worse.
I REALLY HATE these "Downloaders" --Why can't they just let you download the .EXE or .MSI file.
Fortunately I had this on a VM and have deleted the downloader.

on your screen shot you are on the right track, click "custom" then untick extra blotware download then next, the same happens on the next screen it then installs with a shortcut on your desktop.

Me too, but it's that new trend.
~update~
CNET gives you the option to skip downloaders.
I remember that game in XP days. Good one !
