The self extracting compressed files using the stuffit model - were they .smi? or something else very close? - put the data in the data fork and the application that would unpack the data in the resource fork. Classic operating systems once used the resource fork for all applications but powermac's changed that. A missing resource fork, which would be easy to arrange in a download operation these days, could well generate an end of file error that really means "I asked for the resource fork and there was nothing in it." -- --> The U.
