It's the first time that I install SimplePress in my website but when I update simplepress.zip , on the screen appears "The plugin does not have a valid header" , so I come back to the page list plugin and I active simplepress plugin and install it. If I go on my website and click on FORUM , the forum page appears above my website..It's really strange!! My wordpress version is 3.5.2 .What can I do???

what is simplepress.zip???  that is not how you would download a zip archive from this site...

so is it installed and active now??

if just appearing above the content, your theme (or another plugin) just may be doing odd things...  try going to forum - integration - page and permalink and playing with the options there, namely display in loop and display multiple...

simplepress.zip is the file I've used to install simple press on my website. I set "Limit forum display to within WP loop" but nothing! I've activeted the CSS Theme and it works properly. The default theme doesn't work properly with my theme! Why???

Can we have a link to the forum page on your site. I think it is going to be easier for us if we can see this...

I still dont understand simplepress.zip...  we dont have an archive like that...  when downloaded from here it will be called simple-press.zip...  and its really key if you use the plugin uploader as it will get extracted to the wrong directory if the name of the zip is wrong...

sounds like your host is not allowing php parsing of css files (mime type setting)...  hence the reason why css only theme works and default does not since its theme file is actually a php file...

you might also go to forum - options - global settings and turn of the combined css cache and see if that helps...

but as Andy says, a link would help make sure that is the issue...
