Thank you very much. I have downloaded that file and, after a bit of manipulation, written the image to a diskete using only the PC. Then I've gone to the Mac, booted with the diskette (it takes AGES!), and extracted the StuffIt Expander 5 to a folder in the hard disk. And then started the fun... When I try to run SI Expander from the boot disk, an alert is shown just in the limits of the screen: I only can see a corner of it, and no text at all (it sits out of the screen). But I can dismiss it with Return. Then, I open an archive and try to expand it. Nothink seems to happen. When I reboot using System 6.0.7, I go to the folder containing the archive, and nothing new is there. Could it all be because I only have 2 Mb of RAM? Would it be of any help trying a System 7.0.1 boot disk? I have tried also to see what happens if I try to run SI Expander 5 under System 6... just to see a bomb for the first time! :-) (as a programmer, I can't less than wonder why they haven't put an OS version checking just at the beginning of the code... but that's another story).
