Popsloader is a plugin for a built-in emulator, pops. POPs emulate PSX (aka PS-One) Games.

As the firmware gets newer and newer, the game save formats have been changed. Some games are only compatible to some firmware

Popsloader lets you choose what firmware of POPs you want. So more games are compatible.

so when I install a cfw..there is a built in POPS emulator in there?..and how do I install the popsloader?..

Since you have the alternative VSHMenu as well,

you open up the seplugins folder of the rar archive and copy everything inside to ms0:/seplugins, the activate it in the Recovery Menu.

Personally I wouldn't worry about setting up popsloader unless you find a game that is not compatible with the newer, built-in pops emulator.
