sample downloads rule not working

Very newbie question here. I'm running the trial for Hazel (like the sound of it all, just can't get something to work). I downloaded the sample rule for the Downloads Folder and have checked the rules "newly added" "no longer new files" and "old files".
It isn't working properly though. It colors everything in my downloads folder "blue" (from the "newly added" rule), but won't clear or make "red" per the other two. I haven't changed any settings within the rules and I have items in my Downloads folder from a range of dates (from today to months old).
Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for your help!

I think FAQ can help here: http://www.noodlesoft.com/faq.php#U4

In particular, the question: "I am using the sample rules that came with Hazel and now all my files are blue. What's going on?"

If you still have questions after reading that then post back here.
