how do i get mods to work?

I placed a file that I downloaded, a balanced ships mod, into the sugested file, but it doesn't appear in the mods options area in the game. Is there something I need to do to the file?

Unzip using either 7-Zip or WinRAR into your Mods folder
1. For Vista users, it should be located at:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods
2. For XP users, it should be located at:
C:\Documents and settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad
Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods

The proper format should be Mods\[MOD NAME]\[Game info files, models, and other folders]

it has to be version 1.02 of the game or you just dont have a "MODS" folder
