I bought StuffIt Deluxe 3.0 at MacWorld because of a great deal, but 
I'm having some problems with it.  I installed Stuffit and Stuffit 
SpaceSaver, pointed it at one of my hard disks and went to bed. The 
next day my After Dark FadeAway screensaver had kicked in and 
SpaceSaver had compressed the files as required.

That day I reindexed all my disks with On Location to use the StuffIt 
XTND to index StuffIt files.  My On Location runs in the background 
to keep the indices up to date.

Since then, I've come to my Mac with the screen faded (via After 
Dark) and crashed, or at least unresponsive.  This has happened 
several times, but I've been un able to reproduce it on demand. I 
suspect it's some interaction of On Location and SpaceSaver and After 
Dark. 

My system: IIfx with System 7.0, tunedup 1.1.1, 20 megs RAM, 32-bit, 
no VM, 2 screens, On Location version 2.0, After Dark version 2.0v.
