Using LDView, do the following:
  1. Make sure "Automatically check ldraw.org for missing parts" is checked on the Updates tab of LDView's preferences.
  2. Download the dat file by clicking the "Download" link on its page.
  3. Open the dat file in LDView.
  4. LDView will automatically download all the related files, and place them in <LDraw Dir>/Unofficial
  5. Move the original dat file to the <LDraw Dir>/Unofficial/parts directory. (Note: if this directory already exists on your computer at step 2, downloading directly there is easier.)

If you want to use the part from MLCad, follow Willy Tschager's instructions in the "Editing the MLCad.ini file" section here:

http://www.holly-wood.it/mlcad/unofficia...l#mlcadini

I believe that both LDCad and Bricksmith automatically support the <LDraw Dir>/Unofficial directory, so they should both see the part (although since it's a ~ file, it might be hard to find).
