If it's a template you're trying to install then make sure that it is the correct version for your Joomla version and that it isn't a RocketLauncher.
If it's sources or specific components for the template then make sure it doesn't have several zip's inside. If it has several zip's then extract the folder on your computer and then install as normal.
Please reply with a direct link to the issue & create a new thread for each new issue.

Thanks for getting back to me... it has no zip inside....
when i extract and ftp the folder to my server goes to install and then says it cannot, because this folder exists (com_banner), if i remove that it says another folder exists and so son.
