Yep. I have a couple of things that will do it, and one of them gives instructions. You seem to just have to swap the MKEY resource of a password protected archive with the MKEY resource of one which you know the password of. I can't check it as Aladdin seem to have changed their password protection since these "utilities" were made, but I could send them over if you like (only a couple of K each) ... oops. I just checked and it doesn't work on that file :( If you do a Google groups search for "Stuffit password remover" it seems that the more modern Stuffit archives are encrypted, so hacking the password is not trivial, although presumably possible through a brute force attack. No-one seems to have or made or released a Stuffit password remover. Sorry Jeff, you tried emailing someone @ Media100? -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
