The file name from the download will be "lightning-0.9-tb-win.xpi" (note the .xpi extension) and is about 2MB in size. After downloading, at the top of Thunderbird select Tools > Add-Ons then Install and select the above file.

A small tip for users on this subject.

Lightening mentioned above also lets you receive and process Outlook calendar notifications from your work colleagues

If you have a Windows Mobile and want to Sync your Thunderbird information (contacts, calendar etc) with it then try BirdieSync Unforturnately this only works for Windoze and not Linux or Mac,

Another product FinchSync claims to do the same thing and should run on every platform supported by Mozilla as it is written in Java though I have not yet tried it.

edit

Finchsync is free but there is a nominal charge for Birdiesync
