Extracting into eclipse/plugins is not enough.
Since Eclipse 3.0 you need to tell the platform to check for new plugin.
This is for performance reasons.
Run eclipse once with "eclipse -clean".

Try
start -> run -> H:\eclipse\eclipse.exe -clean
instead.

Also make sure that the zip of the plug-in you download does not contain
the plugins folder in the folder path. In that case, you'd need to
unzip to the eclipse directory rather than the plugins subdirectory.

Hope this helps,
