Ciao.

Upgrade your software, if possible, from the developers. The software is for OS X, so naturally there is no using it on Windows unless you have the Windows executable.

You are running OS X 10.7 or above which doesn't have Rosetta to run earlier PowerPC processor binaries like OS X 10.5 and 10.6 does.
You will need to find a Intel processor and OS X 10.7 or above compatible version of the program or install OS X Snow Leopard Server into Parallels and then the software into that.
There is a thread on YouTube and at the MacRumors forums how to go about both.
I also tried installing it in Windows (Parallels) but couldn't find the .exe file.
It's because the version of the software is for PPC based processors of old and no longer existant, you need Rosetta and that's only on 10.6
