It is also important to note if you are using Windows operating system do not use the built in Windows Notepad to edit php files. This can add hidden characters that can break your site. Google for Notepad2 or Notepad++ (both free) or another code editor and use that to edit your php files.
If you already used Notepad and broke your site get a fresh copy of config.php.new from your original download package and copy over the important information manually and use the fresh config.php file.
