I had the same problem after upgrading to 10.4.8 and trying to use
the TGTools and Patterson plug-ins. I wasn't sure what was causing
the problem, so I ran TechTool Pro (definitely not a free program)
and ended up rebuilding the desktop. That did the trick.
I didn't realize that FileBuddy could change bundle bits, which is
much easier. I haven't used that program in ages.

Attention Mac users, especially those who have the latest system
(10.4.8). Sometimes downloading a plugin like TGTools or JW Systems
shows up on your hard drive as a folder instead of a "package".
This makes them unusable as plugins.
Apparently this is some kind of Mac bug that surfaced recently. The
way to making these plugins work again to to turn the folder into a
package and restarting or logging out and in again.
I use FileBuddy (not a free program) to change the bundle bit on
the folder. There are probably other ways to do the same thing.
Maybe others could add their two bits here.
