- Actually you are half right...StuffIt is looking for the preferences
- file (and the Aladdin folder), but is is being TOO intelligent about it. It
- is resolving ALL aliases that it finds - including things like "Last Edition
- Used" which will usually point to another disk.
-
- This problem has been corrected with StuffIt Lite 3.0.3 available
- shortly. StuffIt Lite 3.0.3 also features some other bug fixes and some
- COOL new features...
