The INSTALL file has some URLs.

For FreeBSD see ports collection.

  .rpm  ports: archivers/rpm2cpio
  .deb  ( the usual system's ar(1) program: /usr/bin/ar )
  .doc  (INSTALL tells the URL: http://www.pldaniels.com/ripole/ )
  .cab  ports: archivers/cabextract
  .tnef  ports: converters/tnef

The ripOLE is rather incomplete, in doesn't handle all OLE (.doc) documents.

Hard to say in general.
Viruses currently 'in the wild' are handled by clamav just fine.
