A: 

Go to yourserver.com/administrator/

In one of the menus is a component manager.

there is nothing like a component manager..only plugin manager and module manager.which one u meant..does joomla support comments by default like drupal?

First, don't take downvotes too personally. The person who downvoted you and didn't write a comment saying so, I agree it doesn't hurt to write one, but calling the person a "moron" doesn't help either. You are asking something really trivial, this may be the reason why people downvoted you.

That aside, you're having problems because you didn't understand Joomla's terminology to extensions.

Extensions are divided in:

  • Modules
  • Plugins
  • Components

Check official documentation to learn each concept.

So, when you have an extension, to install it you just go to your Joomla's menu in administration, and select install like it is in the picture below.

Then, select your zip file which contains your extension.
