The problem that some of you may be experiencing is this:

Ok, say you download an app, mms.zip. You go to that file in your file explorer, and see that it is called mms. You then click on this file and rename it mms.apk. You need to keep in mind that some operating systems do not show known file extensions by default. So if you rename it to mms.apk, you are in fact renaming it to mms.apk.zip. The .zip is just hidden. This is the default in Windows for example (at least xp and up).
Windows XP, and the file extensions are set to view. So I'm not sure what the problem is but I'll be sure to double check it tonight when I'm home.
