The tool in the admin section simply locks old Topics.

There is no archive tool in the way you mean.

You shouldn't really need to archive topics anyway, why did you want to do this?

I can't see how, I would have thought that having the extra pages to index is more likely for your site to come up in a search result.

Just create a new forum called "Archives" then when you hae topics you want to close, lock them and move them to the Archive forum.

That way you have all the old ones that are no longer active still accessable for reference.

Don't do like I did and delete them all.  After doing so I realized that is not what I wanted to do.
Pay for your copy of WebWIZ, it's worth it and you know it!
