- I ran into this a while back; it is gatekeeper running into the new
- internal resource compression scheme used by autodoubler on inits,
- etc. (The autodoubler cdev contains this internal compression, if I
- recall correctly.) If you don't want to disable gatekeeper, then
- there is a way to remove the internal compression.
- I received the following instructions from Salient; the instructions
- were in response to a question about AD 2.0, I personally have no
- idea as to whether the same technique will work on 1.0.7.

- + While AD is installed (you can make a backup copy, but in order
- + for the expansion to work you have to work on the copy which is
- + currently running), open the control panel in ResEdit and cmd-A
- + to select all. Cut all and Paste. Select the DKHtm resource type
- + and delete it. Save your changes and you will have a version of
- + he AD control panel which is not internally compressed.
