Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Giving WinZip a run for its money, StuffIt Standard offers effortless file compression and encryption for any type of file. It matches WinZip in several features, including archived password protection, right-click compression, and a gallery of easy-to-use wizards. The utility also comes with a few unique features, including a robust search tool that locates files by date, type, size, and compression format. For others to decompress native StuffIt files, they'll either need the free StuffIt Expander utility or they'll be presented with a self-extracting archive, which adds to the overall file size. Fortunately, StuffIt also can compress in several other formats, including ZIP, TAR, and BinHex, though you won't get the added JPEG compression. Given its features, compression quality, and encryption options, StuffIt Standard stands up to WinZip in most areas. Digital-photo mavens may even prefer it.Publisher's description
From Smith Micro :StuffIt is a file-decompression utility that can open virtually any compressed or encoded file. Use this program to access StuffIt (SIT), ZIP, gzip (GZ), bzip (BZ), LLA, ARC, ARJ, uuencode (UUE), Binhex (HQX), Macbinary (BIN), and MIME/Base64 archives.
The latest version of StuffIt includes ArchiveSearch and StuffIt Express Personal Edition, two powerful new features exclusive to StuffIt. ArchiveSearch quickly searches for files buried deep within archives, and StuffIt Express Personal Edition allows you to create customized drop box applications that can automate all of your file compression and transfer tasks. The new version also adds an enhanced interface; support for Palm applications, Windows XP, and NTFS file streams; and other enhancements over previous versions.
