I just downloaded it after seeing your post.  It's in Compacter format.  I
believe I had uploaded it as self-extracting, but different 'archives' have
their preferred methods of 'archival'.  (They also like to re-name things a
bit.)

In any event, Compacter is shareware (and compresses things much smaller than
the original Stuff-It did).  You can probably find it at umich and almost
certainly at sumex.
