Just get the Installer Monkey then.

My tutorial also links to the Installer Monkey, which makes it a lot easier if you don't want to go the advanced route. It's right at the top of it.

Content DOES NOT go in My Documents!!!
Just so we are clear: DO NOT DO ANYTHING IN MY DOCUMENTS
Notice that nowhere in this guide does it say to put anything in My Documents? Good. Now you may read on.
Oh, wait... before you do...
Content DOES NOT GO IN MY DOCUMENTS
* You will need a file called Resource.cfg, which you can download by clicking here.
http://chii.modthesims.info/getfile.php?file=927170
* Extract the Resource.cfg file from the RAR.
* Windows: Place that file in Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\ - then place any .package files in Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages
You must make the folder called "Mods" and open in and in it make a folder called "Packages". You put all the package files you downloaded there.

If your on XP, there should be an icon on your desktop that says "My Computer", click that, then click on your harddrive. It's most likely called "C:", then "Program Files" should be listed.
If your on Vista, click Start, then on the right side there should be "Computer" and then follow the steps above.
