I'm trying to install it but the install file is a .php, I'm pretty sure an installer and a "Microsoft Picture It!" document are from different worlds

I don't think it is supposed to be an installer, try uploading it to a server host and go into the url and see what happens

Thats the first thing i did, it displays that message where you can either "open" or "save". Open will display: "The specified path does not exist" and save gives me a "Microsoft Picture It!" document.

to make phpbb work corectly you'll need a server with php. else te server isn't able to parse the php files (why did you think it was called "parsed html pages" ).

Wow, omg! That's new to me. I always thought that PHP was a recursive acronym for "PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor". Stupid me.
