You're not the only one. :-/

b23 should work.

The archive in the package is built like this:

/bin/pax -w -z -x cpio -f /tmp/Installer.pkg/Contents/Archive.pax.gz ./

(see "man pax")

You should be able to extract it, giving you a directory mirroring 
where the various files go on your drive.

You'll need to drag install the component to /Library/Components and 
the Device Monitor and Purchase applications to /Library/Application 
Support/IOXperts

For the webcam driver, there is also a .kext which is optional -- it 
only puts newly connected USB cameras into low-power mode -- if it's 
not installed nothing bad will happen (except the light on the camera 
will stay on until the first time it's used and closed).

HTH,

-Steve
