That's why you need JSGME, a brilliant free application that makes installing and removing mods easy.

From one n00b to another - take the above advice and get JSMGE. It is super easy to install, understand, and use. Once it's there all you have to do is extract your downloaded mods into the MOD file in your SH3 directory and then you can open JSMGE and tell it what mods you want to use and it will do all the dirty work for you.
