Hi @MHND,

It seems that you are using the Magento's compiler.

If you install a new module you'll need to:

1) Disable compiler.

2) Clean compiler.

3) Install module.

4) Refresh Cache.

5) Activate compiler.

I'm not a fan of Magento's compiler. My recomendations is to avoid the use of compiler.

While I haven't measured it myself the people whose opinions I trust and value claim that the compiler actually slows down Magento and should be avoided when possible. It's there only for older versions and for compatibility sake.
