Issue when opening NTFS drive in OSX

[jammanex]

Hi, I just recently purchased my first ever iMac and am have some software I downloaded while awaiting the delivery of my machine. I transfered the software to a USB drive (NTFS) and downloaded NTFS-3G but am getting the below message. Can someone let me know what this is and perhaps what I need to do to rectify this? Thanks!

iMAC 2011 - Can't read NTFS drives?

After several hours of Googling and trying various free software programs, I stumbled onto Paragon NTFS for MAC OSX. I tried the demo version and after 2 hours I was hooked.

Here is a link:

AND here is a link to a discount offer (good until May 25):

Hope this helps?

Thanks! I actually Tuxera for mac. Now I can see my drive just fine and have been able to transfer my files. Seems rather expensive though so I think I'll try your solution instead.
