Thanks for getting the Plugable USB-BT4LE - that should be totally fine then. However if you can find the 4 digit USB vendor and product IDs in the Windows device manager then I can check and make sure.
How long did you leave the Web IDE with the connection window showing? The USB dongle itself won't be shown as a connection device, but if it's working then after a few seconds you should see any Espruino devices in range added to the list.
Please could you go to settings (top right), then 'Console' and copy/paste everything in there in here? It might give some hints about what is going on.
Another quick way to get started if you have an Android phone is to use the 'relay' service. Go to http://espruino.com/ide/relay on your phone and connect, then go to http://espruino.com/ide on your PC and type the code on the phone into 'Relay Key' in settings. You can then connect via the Bluetooth radio in your phone.
