Installation is a little more complicated than a simple double-click, but it allows for kanji, hiragana, and katakana entry. Also, it supports multiple dictionary files. The program also comes with a japanese pen input pad which works fairly well.
By the way Jason, you're using a non-standard way of spelling your name -- you're free to spell it out however you want, obviously, but you might consider ジェーソン リー
FYI, I am Japanese

I first used MDict until I found MJDict. It was much nicer and easier to use. But now that MDict has been updated to 2.0 it is much nice than MJDict. You might want to give it a look.
You know that way of spelling it almost makes more sence. Especially the last name. I did my first name but my 先生 wrote out our last names all those years ago for us. Never really made sence to me to have an extra イ on there when you could just use the ー. Thanks for the tip.
edit: I also use the free input method from Mike's site. The best free one i've ever found!
