You should "RIGHT-CLICK" the link and then choose "Save Target As"/"Save Linked Content As"
(or some similarly named command, different browsers call it differently)
;)

ajhorvath, you can save the page from the dropbox address. Once the page is loaded just save it and if the extension is messed up rename it to "xsiaddon" (without quotes).

Due to the fact addons have a xml header, most - if not all - browsers get confused and spit out the raw code of the plugin.

Just rightclick the addon link, and save it as the .xsiaddon file it is.
It's an annoyance and confusion since... well... the addons came into light.

If you haven't got it yet (and yes, I should have thought of this yesterday), here's a zipped version of the file...

I just have install this brilliant plug-in and It didn't show up as expected. I am evaluating 2014 and hate to see such plug-ins doesn't work. It is a daily-use plug in for me. Anyone using it with SI 2014?

I'm not sure what you mean by "didn't show up as expected"...

It's not in the plug-in tree? It is in my 2014.
The menu isn't there? It is for me.
The compounds are not in the ICE preset manager? I see them.

yes, neither of them. I just dragged and dropped it into the view-port and when I do it again it says the plug-in is already installed but I cannot see it anywhere (I don't know the names of the Ice compounds and where they are located)

You should see it in the Plug-in Tree like this:

Use Windows Explorer to check out the User folder.
C:\Users\SOLIDANGLE\Autodesk\Softimage_2014\Addons

Delete anything about PowerExtrude in that folder, or in the InstalledAddons folder.
Then try again to install.

There is nothing called power extrude in the user/addon folder and it is not in the plug-in manager also
