Help downloaded appstore-outside market issue

I tried to download the Amazon Appstore the other night. I got the sms and followed the link and the silly video directions. The app downloaded and installed and when I clicked on the notification to open the program, it immediately closed. I can't find it anywhere on my phone to open the program to finish the instal. When I reopened the sms the link started the download again and the same thing happened. So now I have two copies of this download stored somewhere in my phone, but I have no idea how to access them to delete or install. Now my phone is out of memory and I had to get rid of apps I use just to be able to receive text messages. I don't know if all of these things are related, but basically, I need to know how I can get into the files of my internal memory and delete the copies of the non-installed appstore.
Any help is appreciated.
 
The appstore installer downloaded to the "download" folder on my sdcard. It shows as a 1.3MB apk file. You should be able to install it through your file browser after going to Menu-Settings-Applications and make sure Unknown Sources is checked.
