First of all, it´s LHA not iha Welcome here ....

You have to extract those files and start the program with no extension on the Amiga Shell those are the Amiga executables !

Hmm, if it´s only one executable just insert it just like you do with an ADF into DF0: It will start from there

You may have to run some extracted demos etc from hard disk.

For a guide about setting up a HD with workbench, please see:

Or you could launch them from the RAM DISK, which is preferrable, although demos usually expect an A500, so there may be problems.
