If you search for Stuffit, you'll find info about extracting on a Mac. I seem to remember something about "drag & drop"? _________________ Jock

Yup, download Stuffit Expander (free download here) and install.
Then download the file as normal. You will get the de-compression failed error as Safari tries to auto expand the files. Then right-click the downloaded file and select "Open with | Stuffit Expander" and it will extract as normal. _________________ Darren Griffin |

If you're new to Mac, a right click is obtained by pressing the Control (CTRL) key and clicking the mouse - this will then display the menu mentioned by Darren.
The latest version of Stuffit Expander is for OS 10.4 or later, so if you're running 10.3 or earlier, let me know and I'll see what I have in my archives _________________ Andy
