If the installer can't find your MSC folder, your copy of Steam isn't installed proper (ie. not in the registry). I'd suggest heading to http://www.steampowered.com and re-installing it.

It needs to be extracted to your MSC folder. Problem is that folder's exact location varies with your version of Steam and your steam name. Some common examples include:
\Games\Steam\SteamApps\yoursteamname\half-life\msc
\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\[email protected]\half-life\msc
\sierra\Steam\SteamApps\[email protected]\half-life\msc
\Day of Defeat\Steam\SteamApps\[email protected]\half-life\msc
\Games\Counter-Strike\Steam\SteamApps\yoursteamname\half-life\msc
\Steam\Counter-Strike\Other\SteamApps\yoursteamname\half-life\msc
\Steam\Half-Life2\Other\SteamApps\yoursteamname\half-life\msc
I've seen at least once instance of each of those, and I'm sure there are more. There's no dependable way I can guess your steam dir if it isn't registered proper. You should reinstall as not having Steam registered proper causes issues with several mods and their installers.
You CAN right click on the desktop or start-menu item you use to start Steam and use the "Find Target" button (assuming you have one, some people don't). You should find the MSC folder in one of the above subfolder patterns.
Last resort is to assume you have Steam setup to start with windows, and find its path in the msconfig.exe startup panel. (Programs->Run, enter 'msconfig', sans-quotes press return, click Startup panel, pray.)
