I've got a similar problem, but mine is that my Stuffit Deluxe 2.01 icons -- ALL of them, even those for the various extensions, translators, magic Menu, etc. disappeared!! The same thing happens with Stuffit Classic (on a different disk, so don't say that the two icons are cancelling each other out). The funny thing was that once, SOMEHOW, I managed to get my icons back, but now I recently had to rebuild the desktop, and they're gone again! Stuffit app- ears as a generic application icon, and all Stuffit archives (1.5.1 and Deluxe) appear as generic documents. None of my other icons are suffering this problem. Any suggestions??? =============================================================================== Donald Burr, Univ. of California,Berkeley | America Online: DonaldBurr INTERNET: dburr@ocf.Berkeley.EDU |_Compu$erve:_72540,3071_____________ or: 72540.3071@compuserve.COM | "Send flames to /dev/null."
