I talked to the folks at Aladdin 2 weeks ago.  They told me that at
the time of StuffIt Deluxe v2.0.1 introduction, they weren't sure
of how system 7 would do to their Magic Menu.  So they decided to
turn the Magic Menu off to prevent system crash!  There will be an
upgrade in the late summer for full system 7 compatibility.

Good luck!
