I have a StreetPilot C330 and I've been away for a long time. I'm about to buy a 265wt Nuvi for my wife's b-day...got me back interested in the custom POI's. When I save the file, sometimes they're in a zipped folder...should I unzip the files before I run the POI loader? At one point, I had subfolders to choose from under "Custom POI's", but now they are all just mixed together. Any way to get them organized again? Thanks in advance for any help!

Yes you have to unzip the
Yes you have to unzip the files before you can install them with poiloader.
To get back to subfolders.
1.Go to my documents on your computer and make a folder and name it My poi’s.
2.Click on My poi’s folder. Now right click and make subfolders naming them based on type of files you plan to download. Example: Food, Alerts, Parks, Attractions and etc.
3.Go to POI Factory main page and click on poi files. Scroll down until you see View all poi files ( listed alphabetically) .Click on first file you want to download and save it in one of the subfolders you created. Repeat process until you have downloaded and placed all the csv or gpx files into the correct subfolders. Here is how it should look.
>My pois=main folder
>>Department stores=subfolder
>>>Pennys.csv
>>>Sears.csv
>>Restaurants=subfolder
>>>Cracker Barrel.csv
>>>Sonny's.csv
>>>Arby's.gpx
>>Cameras=subfolder
>>>Redlight cameras.csv
>>>Speed cameras.csv
