Installation of UI/Mod addon files is actually very simple. When you download a file the author usually keeps the original file path where they should be stored to function. For example...
...\Interface\Addons\[insert the name of the UI here]
All custom addons have to sit inside this Addons directory for WoW to pick them up. Anywhere else and they simply won't load when you start WoW.
Many of these custom addons let you know they're loaded in the chat screens as soon as you enter the game so it's always good to look there as soon as you join to see what has been loaded. Of course this is not necessary for the more obvious ones such as extra interface bars becuase you'll see them on screen.
As these files are created by lots of different people they're not always structured like the above path when compressed. To play safe it's always good to decompress them into temp directory somewhere on your HD. That way you can go to the temp directory you created and copy the folder that actually holds the addon and paste it directly into your directory.
C:\World of Warcraft\Interface\Addons\
Some files come as packs which are a collection of addons all put together. Again, follow the above procedure.
The trick to remember is that these addon files must sit inside the
