Cross posting this here so hopefully it will get fixed.
As of 04Feb2009 this quest is still bugged. BUT....I know the problem! You cannot open Tharoff's Bones IF you have an Aura, Familiar, Pet etc active. CLICK THEM OFF and you can open/loot no prob. After MANY clearings and much forum-diving, i found this bug mentioned in an old bug report from 2008.
As always, SoE re-introduces so many old bugs when the "fix" stuff, and this is no exception. Get your hand bones now before they "fix" it again and then it will be many more months until someone re-figures it out again...
it is possible the bug is specific to having the Sokokor familar around, that is the only familiar that I use and i always have the model dismissed via the /pet get lost command

Had the same problem with a character that got the quest the day after the patch. Tried for three days to loot the hand, with no success. Always got the message that mobs were close and cannot open. I had another character that had not complete the quest, cleared the room used the second character to open the bones and looted the bones with the bugged character.
Submitted three petitions for this, the only response from GM is the quest is working as intended try again. SOE customer service at it best.

You get this task from Phara'Dar. Its called "Idle Hands". Say "earthly Remains" to Shade of Theroff in the building located -847/2188 in fos. Si mobs are on the east and west sides of the building but u can safely enter from the northern door. No si inside and u can safely say this to him while invised. To get his hand head to Kaesora area. It is a graound spawn located in the building at loc -1721/-305. U need to trin away the mobs in the building or clear them. There are si in the building. After that. Turn in the hand and done.
Inside is that necro hand needed for the Idle Hand quest. A sub quest to the Grande Illusion Quest from Phara Dar. Looting this hand is the 2nd part of the Idle Hand quest after talking with the Shade.
