1. Does the .install files which i have transferred can't be directly installed ? Aren't they complete applications ? If not, are they just acting as downloader shorcuts of the specified application?

I have a pc.
Operating System : Windows 7
Internet : Connected
Speed: 4 MBPS
Connected to Internet Using : LAN Port
IP: Static ( Constant )
Nokia PC Suite: Installed (Updated)
Nokia OVI Suite: Installed (Updated)
Nokia Software Updater: Installed (Updated)
PC Bluetooth Device: Yes. Working.
PC WIFI Device: Yes. Never tried.
Direct Cable from Network Provider without any modem.I just need to plugin the cable to back of my cpu to connect. No dialups. No login windows.
I think im pretty clear about my pc and its connections.
I have N900. Purchased yesterday.
Got all usb cables to connect to pc.
Succesfully connected it to pc in pc suite mode and been able to transfer files from pc to phone and viceversa.
I planned to install few applications in N900. I found there are .install and .deb files.
I also came to know that .deb are pretty dependent and time taking. So i decided to go for .install files.
I googled and found some downloads from trusted develpers.The extension of the files is .install
I have saved them to my PC first. Then Created a sub folder in Data folder of N900 mobile.
I opened the transferred .install files in the mobile phone using file manager. It opened the file in application manager.
Then it is asking me to connect to internet using a connection.
Its hard in india to connect to internet via telephone service providers. As they charge very heavy amount of money.
I want to know the following things:
1. Does the .install files which i have transferred can't be directly installed ? Aren't they complete applications ? If not, are they just acting as downloader shorcuts of the specified application?
If they can be installed directly Please someone post a step by step guide on how to install .install files directly without connecting to internet.
2.Can i share (connect) the internet in my PC to the Nokia n900. I know that this is a linux based phone. Please note that my pc has a windows operating system.
If i can still share my internet connection to my phone can anyone give a step by step guide on how to do it.
Thanks for reading this lengthy thread.
