Thank you for your interest, Keith...

I found a couple of websites through Google which gave these links and tried
them.  However, the same thing happened.

What I did find though, was some information through Google that solved the
problem:  Apparently, Stuffit (the programme that un-stuffs .sit files) has
a bug in it where the contents of an un-stuffed folder are not displayed.

The cure was to create an empty folder in the apparently empty folder, as it
were, and - thankfully - the mysteriously absent files appeared!  I have
been able to succesfully instally Nikon Scan 4 as a result.

As no-one had replied before now to my original quiery, I did not have
anything in Google Mail to mention this.
