I don't think that resource data forks are related to this problem. When
one gets files from the net, they do not have a resource fork. They are
just plain binary files. ResEdit, when applied to them, askes you wether
it should generate the resource fork. When one stores them on a PC disk,
one gets just one file and not an additional file with the resource fork.
And why is only the program code disturbed, but the .info-file with the
custom icon information works absolutely o.k.? If there would be something
dramatically happening with the data structure, I shouldn't be able to
transport pictures.

Thanks nevertheless
