The ".sit" suffix usually means the files have been archived with
Stuffit, a popular archive/compression utility. Various versions
of Stuffit (free, shareware, and commercial) are widely available
from users groups and BBS's, and surely from Compuserve too
(check out the Mac shareware section.)

I would recommend "Stuffit Expander", which is free and expands
several popular file formats, including Applelink packages.

On the Internet, stuffit is available from sumex-aim.stanford.edu
in the /info-mac/util/ directory and other places.
