Aladdin Expander (freeware, same as Stuffit Expander, but for 
Windows) will expand .sit files.

The safest thing is always to put on the appropriate ending for a 
file type - .txt for text files, I have NO IDEA for AOL.

One way to handle this, if everything in one folder is the same type, 
you might have a script called "Add Prefix/Suffix to Files" which 
does the trick - I do (8.5 upgraded to 8.6 - I think it was in the 
original 8.5), in the scripts folder in my system folder.  (Note - 
I've found running the applescript does NOT work IF you have a file 
or folder highlighted, so make sure nothing's selected in the finder 
before running this script!)

Or a search on Versiontracker gave me a couple freeware solutions 
that you might find helpful:

There are probably tons more of this sort of little app out there, as 
it's a common problem.

Hope this helps!
