For future reference, the way to fix this problem would be this:

OPEN:
install.txt (or whatever the install file is named)

FIND:
<td><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/logo_phpBB.gif" border="0" alt="{L_INDEX}" vspace="1" /></a></td>

REPLACE WITH:
{U_INDEX}

Then ...

I can comment on the MOD not showing up:

It might not have had the correct MOD headers.
Any MOD without the correct headers won't show up in EasyMOD.

Yes, Kevin is right.
The mods folder should be named mods. Not Mods.

OK, the advice given was never going to work.

Go into the MySQL database.

Find the table phpbb_config
Then find the entry "EM_password"

It will contain an encrypted version of the password.
Edit it, and replace the encryption with:
d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e

This changes the password to ...

When you update phpBB, it is likely that all of the MODs will become screwed up, since you would be replacing some of the phpBB files with newer ones.

What I recommend you do, is search through your MOD install files for anything that edits a file that is being replaced.
Then, just move the new ...

There are several tables that will need deleting in order to reinstall EM.

phpbb_config:

EM_version
EM_password
EM_read
EM_write
EM_move
EM_ftp_dir
EM_ftp_user
EM_ftp_pass
EM_ftp_host
EM_ftp_port
EM_ftp_type
EM_ftp_cache

Delete all of them from the database, and try installing EasyMOD again ...

Warning: opendir(./mods) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /public_html/forums/admin/admin_easymod.php on line 1574

That means that admin_easymod.php is trying to open a file/folder, which isn't there.

Post line 1574 of admin_easymod.php for me, please ...

Don't ask me that; I don't manage the downloads.
I'm just here for support.

I would recommend you don't use a phpBB board installed via fantastico; it would save a heck of a lot of time, and effort to install normally.

But try and install EM normally.
Go into the admin directory and create a mods directory.
Then put all EM files into there, under the directory easymod ...

EasyMOD doesn't look for install.txt or install.mod
But the install file has to be in the root of the directory that the MOD is.

/admin/mods/a_mod/install.txt

That would work, but this wouldn't:

/admin/mods/a_mod/b_mod/install.txt

And as long as the MODs have the correct permissions and the ...
