At Aladdin we are very proud of our award winning software products. This overview of the product line will give you an idea what each of our products does and how they may benefit you.
StuffIt Deluxe™ (Macintosh)
StuffIt Deluxe, the complete compression solution for the Macintosh, has been greatly improved and been made Mac OS 9.0 compatible. It offers 20% greater compression than earlier versions of StuffIt®, and includes archiving and translation capabilities in one easy-to-use package. With StuffIt Deluxe, users “stuff” files into documents called archives. These archives assist in saving disk space, speeding file transfers over modems, networks, and the Internet, and making backups easier. The program also supports a wide variety of compression formats allowing for translation to and from other Macintosh, DOS, and UNIX formats, including ZIP (.zip), Encrypted ZIP, Tape Archives (.tar), ARC (.arc), Applelink (.pkg), gzip (.gz), Unix Compress (.Z), UUencode (.uu), MIME/Base64, LHA (.lha), and StuffIt SpaceSaver files. StuffIt is the international standard and accepted method of Macintosh file compression and archiving on all major online services. Our True Finder Integration™ makes StuffIt Deluxe the easiest-to-use compression package available. If you know how to use the Finder, you know how to use StuffIt Deluxe.
That's why we call StuffIt Deluxe “The Complete Compression Solution™."
DropStuff™ (Macintosh)
DropStuff with Expander Enhancer offers users the ability to easily create StuffIt archives by simply dragging and dropping a file or folder onto the DropStuff icon. Also included is the Expander Enhancer, which boosts the functionality and speed of the freeware StuffIt Expander. With this package installed, Expander can expand and decode nearly all formats found on the Internet. It will also join files that were segmented with another StuffIt product, like StuffIt Deluxe.
DropStuff™ (Windows)
Aladdin Systems just made it easier to send and receive files over the Internet! Whether you're communicating with other Windows users or Mac users, the new shareware, Aladdin DropStuff 5.0 for Windows, is a cross-platform communication breakthrough. Aladdin DropStuff is the only Windows software that lets you create either .zip or .sit compressed files. Aladdin Expander gives you total access to virtually any file format you may find on the Web. The power of these two programs is all you need for communication and access on the Internet. If you don't already have Aladdin Expander 5.0 for Windows — we recommend you download it.
StuffIt Expander™ (Macintosh)
StuffIt Expander is Aladdin's award-winning freeware product. Use it, as is, to expand StuffIt, ZIP, UUencoded, BinHex & MacBinary files. Version 5.5 also has the ability to mount ShrinkWrap image files (electronic versions of disks) and to decrypt Private File encrypted files. Add the Expander Enhancer from "DropStuff with Expander Enhancer" (shareware, US$30) and StuffIt Expander is PowerPC accelerated, expands more formats (including .pkg and .tar), and joins StuffIt segments. Expander also handles segmented and multipart encoded files (ie: BinHex and UUencoded files).
Aladdin Expander™ (Windows)
Aladdin Expander 5.0 for Windows expands files from the most popular archiving and compression formats found online, including StuffIt (.sit) and ZIP (.zip). Aladdin Expander will also expand files in UUencoded (.uue), BinHex (.hqx), and MacBinary (.bin) formats, such as those commonly found on the Internet. Other archive formats supported include ARC (.arc), Arj (.arj), and gzip (.gz). Aladdin Expander will also expand self-extracting archives created by StuffIt, ZIP, and Arj. Aladdin Expander is the only Windows decompression tool that can expand StuffIt-compressed files, the standard compression utility on the Macintosh. So, if you encounter a file in the .sit format, with Aladdin Expander you can access it!

MacTicker is a simple Internet application that lets you view the free stock market information provided online by financial websites around the world. You can watch any number of your stocks roll by on the ticker, or call up a detailed report for each of your favorites. MacTicker updates this information once a minute right on your desktop. You can configure it to alert you to stocks that are doing particularly well, or warn you to sell that stinker. MacTicker gives you all the charms of the stock market, without the traders.
Aladdin Desktop Magician™ (Macintosh)
Aladdin Desktop Magician helps manage your desktop by creating sets of files and folders that can be moved to or from the desktop at anytime. Desktop Magician can also quickly restore the positions of icons on the desktop. If you change your monitor resolution or accidentally select "Clean Up Desktop," Desktop Magician can put everything back just the way it was. Desktop Magician is a Macintosh-only product.
Private File™ (Windows & Macintosh)
Private File is encryption/decryption software. It is the easiest way to protect a user’s sensitive information for secure transmission over the Internet. Private File uses powerful 128-bit encryption to encrypt files and folders and is as easy to use as drag and drop. Private File is Windows 95/98/NT and Macintosh compatible. It also incorporates the award-winning StuffIt compression technology which allows users to save time when sending their encrypted files over the Internet. Private File includes a two-user license for the cost of one.
Aladdin FlashBack™ (Windows & Macintosh)
FlashBack your work and you're protected. Protected against loss by accidental deletion, file corruption, even from hitting the save key and overwriting your file. Aladdin FlashBack is a whole new way to protect your files. With FlashBack you can recover not only lost or damaged files, but also previous versions of files that you have changed, even if you made the changes months ago. To protect your work, just drag and drop your file onto FlashBack. To restore a file just double-click the version of the file you need. FlashBack instantly reconstructs your file exactly as it was at the time you saved it. You can set FlashBack to protect both local and networked files, and to increment its backup every time you hit save or at specified times: by any combination of minutes, hours, or days.
ShrinkWrap™ (Macintosh)
ShrinkWrap is a utility that can quickly and easily turn a disk into a file. The file can then be transmitted electronically (via the Internet, etc.) and just as quickly returned to an exact disk image of the original source disk. ShrinkWrap was developed to create disk image files quickly and efficiently, to provide a convenient and reliable means of mounting disk image files on the desktop, to seamlessly handle disk image files in their archived form. It also provides an alternative to other disk copying methods. ShrinkWrap supports all commonly used image file formats.
StuffIt InstallerMaker™ (Macintosh)
StuffIt InstallerMaker is a fully featured, turnkey system that allows users to easily create custom installers for their products. InstallerMaker allows developers to create Internet-savvy installers that can install from multiple FTP sites. With a click of the mouse, developers can also create trialware with our electronic commerce feature — no coding required. InstallerMaker employs a "one-button" philosophy that allows an end-user to specify where he/she wants the software installed by clicking a single button. Setup for the vendor who is distributing the software is just as easy. By using a graphical point-and-click interface, developers can easily create destinations and conditions for installation of their files. Unlike other installation technologies, there is no scripting necessary. Contact dev.sales@aladdinsys.com or visit our Web site listed below to get a free trial version of the software.
StuffIt Engine™ SDK (Windows & Macintosh)
StuffIt Engine Software Developer Kit (SDK) allows third-party software developers to include built-in support for StuffIt archives (.sit), the Macintosh standard for archiving and compression. By licensing the StuffIt Engine, a developer's product can easily create StuffIt archives (.sit), Self-Extracting archives (.sea), and encrypted archives, among other formats. The windows SDK also allows for ZIP (.zip) compression. The StuffIt Engine consists of a series of code resources that give users access to standard StuffIt archival compression and decompression. The StuffIt Engine for the Mac allows developers to easily use the industry standard StuffIt compression and decompression formats in their products.
