How come the software installer tells me to remove the previous version before installing on my 64 bit Windows VISTA OS?

This means you already have a previous version, or the same version, software installed on the system. You must remove the previous version before installing. 64 bit Windows VISTA has a very strict security policy that prevents the installer from automatically and completely remove previously installed program. Therefore, the user must manually remove the previous version (from Control Panel > Programs and Features) before installing the software.
