Stuffit archives

[Alex Neuman]

Could one "add" a different compression scheme as a plugin, for example, in
order to open .zoo or .lha or .ace files? (or any other compression scheme
for that matter?) This would be similar (conceptually, as I am not a
programmer) to how MailScanner supports practically every virus scanner in
existence.

Thanks,  Julian.

I'm using Panda and F-secure.   Neither one of those scanners sees .sit
archives.   I can't get Norton to see it either.    Does anyone on this
list have suggestions,  or does everyone just block .sit files?   ;)

Thnx

Vic
