First I would launch 7.0.3 manually and make sure it worked, showed the
correct version, was registered to you, etc.

Then, from what I remember of OS9, I would use Sherlock to find anything
that was  5.5 and trash it. Then launch IE and find something to download
and unstuff as a test. Maybe IE will have automatically select 7.0.3 since
it is the only Stuffit you will have. IE seems to do that in OSX - it is
full of helpers that I never selected.

If IE has not automatically selected Stuffit, then use IE's Preferences to
select 7.0.3 as a helper app. But...there are about a zillion file formats
that Stuffit works on, so I hope IE selects Stuffit automatically because I
don't see how you could do them all manually.
