Trying to install CGExtensions for a new website running CMS 1.6.6. (CMS is running smooth)
These are the errors I get...
Error parsing XML file. Please make sure you are uploading a .xml file and not a .tar.gz or zip file
and Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: Filename cannot be empty in /home5/xxx/admin/listmodules.php on line 116
Any ideas?
Thanks...

if you go to extensions > modules. (not the module manager, just modules)
at the bottom there is an option to install via XML file
download at:
http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/project/files/291
get the xml
upload and then when it is added to the list of modules, be sure to click install
job done.

Make sure you are running PHP5 but not PHP5.3...

Then you may have a different problem with your install...
You did use extensions > module to install it, right?...
You may have to get the folder from the forge to install it, unpack folder on your computer and FTP it to the modules folder then run install for it in extensions > modules...

I was having the same issue so I checked my system information page (under Site Admin) and saw:
Maximum Post Size (post_max_size): 8M
Maximum Upload Size (upload_max_filesize): 2M
I changed them both to 32M, by creating a file called php5.ini (or it can be php.ini) and adding this to it:
upload_max_filesize = 32M
post_max_size = 32M
memory_limit = 32M
then I uploaded it to the website root folder, usually public_html
I also saw an error with my previews_path, basically there wasn't a cache folder (I had recently moved the site to a new server)
I then upgraded cge extensions without a problem
Hope that helps
