Mactopia signature themes not downloading correctly?

Whenever I click to download an Entourage signature, it downloads as a
".bin" file, and when I double click it as the directions say, an
error message saying "The movie could not be opened" pops up on
screen. How can I download these files correctly?

Hi,

to open these .bin files, you will need Stuffit Expander, which you can
download for free on this website:

<http://www.stuffit.com/mac/expander/>

Right now, your Mac doesn't know how to deal with these files and tries to
use another application to open them, which results in the error message you
mention. After you've downloaded and installed Stuffit Expander, the files
should expand properly.

Do a Get Info on the file and select to open with Stuffit. I just checked
and the file wants to open with VLC for me. I¹ll report this.
