Ola's homepage is located here, with release notes located here and documenation here. If you're simply looking for the script, you can find it here.

Other Tools to Examine
I also want to redirect your attention to Raoul Illyes' excellent wait state analysis tool. I know there was quite a lot of talk about using wait states to troubleshoot SQL Server problems at the PASS 2009 Summit. So if you attended any of those popular sessions, take a look at Raoul's free utility here.
Enjoy!
