well, I have to admit that it has been a while since I tried logging in to a vm console from a Windows OS :) Adding some people to this which I think can help more than me...
Well, it didn't even have any traces to tell me if it's installed. I am supposed to see these according to the instruction but none of

* IE will prompt you with "This website wants to install the

* Depending on the version of IE a UAC dialog may pop up asking you if you want to allow "SpiceX.cab" If it does not Click on the install spice button again and it will. * In the UAC dialog click on the yes button. * The install will now proceed in the background.
I am using W7 64bit with IE11. My engine is running on a RHEL6 machine.
IE11 doesn't really work as of now. Try some more reasonable browser, IE10 would be also fine.
activex setup requires some manual work as mentione at How_to_Connect_to_SPICE_Console_With_Portal wiki native invocation (that file to download you got) is easier, just associate with recent remote viewer and it should open it works on Windows, Linux and OSX (needs https://github.com/brianwcook/launchvv in addition)

This isn't working for me at this time. I have gone to the end of the instructions and clicked on "Install Spice" button in IE but nothing happened. Maybe someone with more knowledge should come out and make clarifications.

yuck
i dont know why they do not just have this already done in an rpm
yes it probably works , i have not tested it , but virt-viewer is deprecated in favor of the newer Remote-Viewer
by the way
worst comes to worst you can always connect to the ovirt vm node server via virt-manager gui in linux .. or using macports virt-manager in OSX
and as long as you have a username and password set up in
password db /etc/libvirt/passwd.db
use saslpasswd2 -a libvirt $USER on your ovirt vm host node to add your user account so you dont mess with ovirt's
if you have winaxe or some other Xwindows on your windows machine you could probably just ssh with putty.exe to your ovirt node server and run virt-manager from there while displaying back to your windows desktop
