A previous post seems not to be showing up, so let me summarize the problem.
Updated to 2.3.3 v606 and every time I attempt to Load Sample Rules I get an error that the file is corrupt or not a rules file. See screen capture: Load Sample error
As I'd only been using Hazel for a few days, and had only a few rules, I uninstalled Hazel via Hazel Preferences -> Info -> Uninstall. Then manually deleted the .plist and Hazel-related scrap in /Users/username/Library/Preferences. Then I reinstalled 2.3.3 and imported my license.
I set debug on, entered a few simple rules, then attempted to Load Sample Rules getting the corrupt or not a rules file error message. A PDF of the verbose log of that session is available: Debug Log
That log begins thusly:
