Doing this now
At the end it says I need to download a root program. Which should I download? Should I download one before I start?

In step 2.1 it says to download asroot2 and put it in AndroidSDK\Tools. That is your root program. And yea go ahead and download it.

okay, just downloaded nandroid 2.0 as well. at what point do I use this? Or is the link you sent me another option? I put that file in the tools folder. I think I am ready to start.

You can delete nandroid, it is included in the recovery image, this thing is a beast. I am not saying you won't do it, only that you already have it!
