Given that it's the BBS, I would assume they're not condoning the framework at all, and therefore assume you have no Mods folder. After all, their primary audience doesn't use hacks because there aren't hacks on the exchange.

With Ambitions/the latest patch EA now officially supports mods.

This game update includes:
<SNIP>
    *       Players who play The Sims 3 with game modifications can now create a folder in which to place their game modifications. The folder should be located here:

C:\Documents and Settings\YourComputer\My Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods

    *       When Mods are placed in the official Mod folder, a notification will appear to remind players that Mods are installed.
    *       Placing Mod packages into the Mod folder is an officially sanctioned way to bypass assembly signing verification. The Resource.cfg file must be placed in this folder in order for the modifications to work correctly.
    *       When Mods are installed that are incompatible, the player will receive a message notifying them of the error.
<SNIP>


However, I don't think anyone expects the average Exchange user to be particularly well informed about the installation and usage of mods and/or custom content created with tools other than those provided by EA.

FOR THE LOVE OF DOGS USE YOUR PUNCTUATION. PROPERLY.


The comma belongs after 'dogs', not 'punctuation'.

If you're going to shout, shout correctly.


I believe that's called a 'period', not a 'comma'.

If you're going to shout, STFU.


I sit partially corrected.  You're right.  That is a period in the original post.  The single space and lack of proper capitalization, coupled with my slightly fading eyesight, had me fooled.  But there should still be a comma after 'dogs'.

If I was going to shout, I'd use the caps lock key.

So back to the doll, I've deleted the file from the dc backup folder, taken out the mods folder, deleted the lot which I thought it was from, checked the downloads folder (its not a named download and I would'nt have downloaded it by choice) and its still there, is there any other way of finding it apart from deleting and re-installing all the downloads?  I only have 3 .dbc files and I have'nt installed those

You don't install the dbc files, they are what the launcher does when it installs your sims3packs. It takes a bunch of them and puts them large archives which are the dbcs. Think of it as sort of a zip file with a bunch of other files in it.

If you got the doll then it is almost certainly inside one of your dbcs. As I noted above, you will have to run the launcher and scroll through the list of installed files until you get to the doll, then delete it through the launcher.
