Trying to use W1 with Mac

The instructions just say to copy the .dll into your VST folder, which I did, and rescanned VSTs (and of course even closed and re-opened live) and I don't see it anywhere. I tried copying every other file that was offered on the site, the AU, DLL, and VST, and no combination seems to work. What am I doing wrong?? ANY help would be so greatly appreciated!!
Here is the website:

macs don't use dll's
Look for the component and put it in your component folder... or vst and put it in your vst folder.

Thank you for the quick responses! The vst wasn't working, but I may have been putting it in the wrong folder, because I have an actual VSTi folder that I created at one point(I guess I really didn't need to make that in the 1st placed). However I found the component, which I didn't see before, and threw that in the proper folder, and I'm in business.
Yes I do like Live 8s limiter, so it wasn't the end of the world, but I was wanting to try this one out, and it was driving me crazy that I couldn't get it to work.
Thanks again everyone

Now I can sleep!!
