no, but I always grab the .7z instead of the installer.

try  http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/2.1.1/win64/

Altho I just tried the 32 & 64 bit version of VLC on Win 7 & both worked for me.
Try getting the .zip or .7z and installing it yourself (which is just
unzipping into a new folder somewhere).  If you still get the 'this
version is not..' you might need to get the Windows Visual C 2008 or
2010 redistributable & install that.
