I'm presuming you are using OS X 10.3.7....
Try the built-in unzip tool. If double-clicking the zip file launches Stuffit Expander instead of the built-in tool, then control-click or right-click on the file and select Open With->BOMArchiveHelper. If you always want to use the BOMArchiveHelper for .zip files, then Get Info on the file, and set the "Open With" application to "BOMArchiveHelper" and then click the "Change All..." button. Anyway, one way or the other try the built-in unzip tool and see if that works. Also, do you have the latest Stuffit Expander? Maybe a newer version would work. Also you could search versiontracker.com for other unzipping software. Maybe one of those alternates can handle this format file. Last but not least, are you sure the zip file in question isn't corrupt? Can it really be unzipped on the PC?

I just bought a Liteon 5006 dvd recorder, which is pretty neat. One reason I
choose them is thay offer firmware and drive upgrades. You download the files,
burn them in a CD and the machine eats them. Nice. There are also hacked
versions of these files that allow certain functions not available with the
stock machine.
Problem is the standard upgrades need winzip 9 or another windows utility
(forget what it's called) to unzip. I have the latest stuffit version in
10.3.7, but it doesn't touch it.
Is there a way to open these files without a windows machine or emulator?
