Publisher's description of StuffIt Standard Edition 8.5
From Smith Micro:StuffIt Standard Edition for Windows makes it easy to access any download or attachment and to send files that transfer quickly and securely. The application can create self-extracting archives that open automatically and also can find compressed files quickly. It has an easy-to-use drag-and-drop interface and wizards to email and upload archives to FTP sites. The application has a StuffIt Catalog that tracks all compressed files, supports RAR and TAR files, and comes with corruption and privacy protection. StuffIt makes it simple to access e-mail attachments and downloads that were compressed on any platform, including Windows, Linux, Unix, and Mac. Plus, you can use the new drag-and-drop tools to open or view the contents of Zip, StuffIt, Tape, or other archives instantly.

Version: StuffIt Standard Edition 8.5
"DISGRACEFUL PRODUCT! --- Use Freeware expander "Extractnow" Instead!!!"
Pros: NONE! This programs stinks. - Instead use the Only alternative for Windows users that I have found - extractnow.com
Free! expander (make sure you get the Stuffit plugin as well and copy it to the Extractnow Folder)!
Cons: I just wanted to extract a few .sit files. After downloading the massive demo. I found it to be rubbish and uninstalled.
I searched long and hard for a program that will extract .sit and found "ExtractNow" worked by installing the .sit plugin found on extractnow.com

""Free Expander" - Name "StuffIt" Says It All"

Version: StuffIt Standard Edition 8.5
Summary: Aladdin sucks! If you just want Expander you have to download this entire bloated software package. It's slower than the old versions, and if you double-click a file it opens Stuffit instead of just expanding the file to the folder as in previous ve... read more >>

Version: StuffIt Standard Edition 8.5
Summary: Simply put, I've had a frustrating time with this application. First and foremost, the developers left out numerous settings in ver 8 that ver 7 had, most of which were tremendously important, even though ver 7 doesn't seem to want to open .hqx fil... read more >>
