Much better question donkey
Does this happen with all components / plugins you try to install? Check your PHP installation and configuration - the problem is most likely not with the plugin but deeper in your platform. - Ragdata's Rubber Duck

Damnit ... OK ... are you certain you have absolutely the latest version? A new one was released 2 days ago.
Aside from that, still looking at your platform - is it possible (however unlikely) that your successful installs were from .gz files and that your installer is hanging on the .zip? i.e. do you have both .gz and .zip support compiled into your local version of PHP? - Ragdata's Rubber Duck

Go to your Joomla Admin Console, Help >> System Info >> PHP Information
Check out the installed libraries (scroll straight to the bottom to check for Zip and Zlib).
There are 6 compression libraries available for PHP - the most common I've come across are:
Bzip2
Zip
Zlib
For Joomla, you preferably want to have Zip and Zlib so that you have the most common bases (.zip, .gz) covered. I believe that Zlib is a requirement for Zip anyways. - Ragdata's Rubber Duck

No - Joomla can only use what you have compiled into your PHP build.
The quick way around this problem is to unzip your zip, and re-archive it as a .gz - then you won't have any problems ... but you're going to have to do this for every single .zip you want to upload. - Ragdata's Rubber Duck

If you hit the GZIP home page:
www.gzip.org/
There's a list of exe's for different operating systems about a quarter of the way down the page. - Ragdata's Rubber Duck
