I suppose you probably have used Internet Explorer to download that package. When using IE and downloading from certain sites (if I'm not mistaken for example from DeviantArt), the extension of downloaded file gets changing from .rmskin, to .zip. Am I right you've used IE?
Not a problem: the only thing you have to do is to change its extension back to .rmskin. Then you can install it.

Have you succeeded installing the skin?
Please confirm if you indeed have used IE to download the installer. Because I'm curious if other browsers act same way as well.
