Hi Nitegyp.

Somehow your OS 10.3 has decided to open your files with a classic app.

Just go to your downloads folder, click on a file that OSX thinks should open in Classic, and do a "Get Info" (command-I) on the file. In the part where it says "open with", change it to a OS X version of the program, and then use the "Open all files like this" checkbox so the new OS X program will be used instead of the Classic version.

Cheers
