Existing users, 
I get an error #37 when trying to open with Stuffit and Stuffit Deluxe.
WHY does the author continue to offer this file in ZIP format rather than a native Mac archive like dmg? Won't someone please reconfigure the zip into a self extracting dmg?

Don't use Stuffit for zip files - lionel77
The problem is that StuffIt (and in particular older versions of it) is not the best choice for handling zip files on the Mac. What you want to do is to unzip the archive using the zip engine that is built-in in OS X: Right-click (or control-click if you only have a one button mouse) the aMule zip archive and choose "Open with->BOMArchiveHelper". The resulting aMule app should run fine on your machine.If you want to permanently associate zip files with the built-in engine instead of StuffIt, do a "Get Info" on a zip file and choose "BOMArchiveHelper" in the "Open with" section. Then click the "Change all" button.
Hope this helps. :)
