StuffIt Expander adds new glitch with UU encoded files

CNET staff
Tom Brand writes: "When expanding UU encoded files, if the filename contains a colon ':' StuffIt v5.1 attempts to create a Macintosh filename with the ':' colon character. This results in a 'Sorry a disk related error (-35) has occurred preventing the operation from completing' as Mac OS filenames may not contain a colon." The MRP reported on this the other day and added: "To confirm this, you must make sure that you don't have a version of the StuffIt Engine installed in your Extensions folder."
