Wow!  I didn't know there was a cd rom.  Where can I get it?

Well, .cpt is an extention which corresponds to a compact-pro document.  
It's not a self-extracting archive (.sea) or any application for that 
matter.  Either use a new version of Stuff-It, Stuff-It Expander, or 
Compact Pro to decompress this file into an application which can then be 
launched as you say.

As a last resort, but it won't help.  There probably isn't a CODE 
resource in that file to execute anyway.  Try the Compact-Pro thing.
