When I unzip web_wiz_forums_access2000_v7_beta3.zip all the files get placed in one folder.

The instructions indicate the site should work turn-key, yet code requires content in places like "admin/", "functions/", "includes/", etc.

What am I missing?

It could be the zip program you are using is incorrectly setup or something along those lines.

Try using winrar from http://www.winrar.com - www.winrar.com and see how you get along with that unzip program. It's much better than winZip as it also supports .rar files that have much greater compression ratio.

and it's not 100% turnkey as you still need to configure the database path. Also, don't upload it all, just the forum folder inside the zip is needed.
