So when i see a zip file i have know idea how that works. I have clicked on the 3G taskbar one and downloaded it to my computer but i can not drag and drop just the taskbar.. Other that - that is how inept i am.
I appreciate all your help.

The first thing you should do is get Total Commander or a similar file exploring program to run on your Imagio. The built in one is not robust enough to access certain directories or view and change certain files. With TC (which is free) you can edit all files and directories including the registry. It also supports zip files (unzipping and creating). When you find TC online it should have instructions for use.
I use Windows 7 so I access my Imagio by plugging in the USB and launching (automatically) the Windows Mobile Device Center (free from MS and used to Sych with Outlook on your PC). That will allow you to browse the device memory and storage card memory from your PC. You can also move files from you PC to the device (like the CABS folder you made but without having to remove the storage card).
Once you've moved a cab or zip file onto the device, use TC to browse to the file and either run the cab or unzip the file to another directory on your device. keithdupont always zips the files so it creates a new directory for you. Once it's unzipped onto your device, use TC to move the files into the appropriate directory (usually Windows located on the root of the device).
Play around with TC a bit and get familiar with the file structure and functions. Remember to BACKUP your device before you start messing around too much (with something like SPB Backup, which I like) so if something goes wrong you can restore without having to do a hard (full) reset. Any more questions just ask. Have fun and hit Thanks if this was helpful.
