    Well I think the best way is see if you hosting control panel has a script installer or Fantasitico. That way you don't have to upload anything. I think that's the only way.

    it might be easier to upload the zipped package, then use the file manager in the web site control panel to extract it.
    the only problem with fantastico is are you getting the latest version and do you want every language on the planet included in your new forum?
