I went onto the PGPSW POI section & picked a selection of seperate POI's & downloaded them to my PC.

They came as a file called POIs.zip, which when unzipped gave me a file just called POIs, with no extension after it which seemed strange. I have my PC set to show file extensions

I copied this file into the map folder on my TomTom 930 but nothing seems to have happened.

Do I have to install them or do something else

There are certain PC configurations that seem to give, occasionally, the problem of a corrupt download.

Could you try again using the Show Link Option. The Zip File will then be compiled in a slightly different way. It won't be called POIs.zip either!
