Right now, the files are somewhere in the file system of your hard drive 
(they do not exist "in" Zoombrowser; it just shows you what is on the 
drive, camera, or card it is looking at). There will be a .CRW and a 
.THM file for each picture you have taken. You need to find these if you 
plan to do anything with them with just about any software. In 
Rawshooter Essentials, you just browse to the folder holding the files 
using the folder tree in the Rawshooter program's main window.

I believe you can launch Canon's raw converter from Zoombrowser and I 
believe it is as simple as double clicking the raw file in Zoombrowser, 
or selecting "convert" from a menu.

Yes, though it isn't very relevant to the issue. Old versions worked 
pretty much the same as newer versions. What you really need to do is 
have a glance through the user manual until you are familiar with raw 
file basics and know where Zoombrowser is putting the files after it 
downloads them from the camera/card.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
