The samples file is in a RAR compressed format, and I don't know a lot about
Tiger (I'm still in OS9), but I'm pretty sure you need a utility to decompress
that file.  Otherwise, your system won't know what to do with it.  Have you
tried to use UnStuffit - isn't it standard in OSX?  If that doesn't work, you
could go to a shareware site and look for a RAR utility for OSX.

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.
