Alrght, i can only help you with the manual way. So you download them, go to your addon folder (My Computer/C Drive/Users/Public/Games/Warcraft/Interface/Addons) delete the old add on, then put in the new folder. Correct?

So u r saying that I should delete the /Mycomputer/C Drive/Users/Public/Games/WoW/Interface/Addons folder or r u saying that I should delete old add ons?
Anyway what difference does it make lets give it a shot.

When you download an addon, Its in a zip file. When you extact it, it should be in a folder with the name of the addon. That is the new folder im talking about.

Well, I've never used vista, so I can't help too much. Try running wow As an Administrator.
