The questions about operating system and browser versions aren't just to make 
you type more.  They really are necessary to understand what your configuration 
is.

Do you have the JavaAccessBridge installed?  Is it installed correctly? (ie do 
other Java applications run?)

The first thing I would try to is uninstalling it or reinstalling, whichever is 
more appropriate.  From the little information that I can see here, I think 
it's unlikely to be a Refine-specific problem.

Sorry about that...

What operating system and browser are you using?

Operating System : Windows 7
Browser - Chrome. I believe this is the default which opens up.

Installation wise, I don't have JavaAccessBridge installation, and I did try 
running the Refine installation but no luck. hope it helps..

i'm hitting the same issue, it seems. was at a nicar conference where david 
huynh, from google, demo'd google refine. wanted to use it on my machine, with 
win7 64-bit and google chrome (by default, but any browser would do). 
downloaded refine zip package, unzipped and tried to run google-refine.exe. it 
flashes open the command window, but that quickly closes and nothing else 
happens. i have java (32-bit and 64-bit versions) installed, and just added the 
java access bridge app, per "project member" above. still get the same activity 
-- i.e., command window flash and then nothing else. would really like to get 
this working, so any help would be appreciated.

I'd suggest trying this
- open a Command line window
- change to the directory where you unzip'ed the zip file
- run "refine" there
- see if you get any error in the command line

(forehead slap!) i unzipped the package, but had unchecked the option to 
restore original folders. so, refine execute and batch files were telling 
refine to look for folders that didn't exist. argh. (forehead slap again!) 
thanks for the quick reply, tho. all is working fine, now.
