Okay, so here's the deal:
- I got on Google Chrome today, & the Adblock Plus "was installed" appeared in a new Window.
- I followed the steps showed on "The page 'Adblock Plus has been installed' opens each time the browser is started"
- I removed it, following the steps
- Once I tried to re-install it, the error message I got says the exact following:
"Package is invalid. Details: 'Could not unzip extension.'"
With an "OK" button next to it.
- So I Google searched my butt off ! To no avail, I didn't find anything that matched my case which was weird because this is Google and I assumed someone might have the same issue as me, but I guess not ?
- So I went back to adblockplus.org & followed the rest of the steps which said to delete the "File System" folder in the Chrome folder of my computer, which I did.
- I attempted to re-install AdBlock Plus, but then got another message, saying something along the lines of...."NO_TEMP_FOLDER_TO_COPY_TO_" something about a temporary file to add the extension to.
- Once again, I Googled it, with no helpful findings related to my situation
I uninstalled Google Chrome, then re-installed it. Tried to install Ad Block Plus again, but got the same message that I got the first time about the package being invalid.
Help me please!

Re: Can't Install AdBlock Plus? (Package invalid)
if still does not work, try to install the last dev build
devbuilds/adblockpluschrome/00latest.crx
download the crx file, go to chrome://extensions page, drag & drop the crx file in the page

Re: Can't Install AdBlock Plus? (Package invalid)
It looks like the downloaded package might simply be corrupt, due to an interrupted download or some local data corruption at your system. Try to re-download it from the the ABP website. You might also want to try the nightly development builts, as mapx mentioned. If the issue keeps occurring, please file a detailed step by step issue at https://issues.adblockplus.org
