Answer
Hi Peter,

You need to drop these into the appropriate folders in your Illustrator Resources folders (Brushes, symbols, etc.) and not into one folder. To Load these, you have to go to the appropriate palette in Illustrator and using the drop down menu, choose "load brushes, swatches, etc. Then locate your files.

If these are AI files, it may be that you will have to open these files, and create the symbols and brushes from the native files provided.

Thanks
