I experimented with Stuffit Expander 3.0's 'Watch folder' option, and
it seems like it will only watch a folder if the program is on the
same volume as the watch folder. Otherwise it does nothing.  
Also, after I discovered this, I found that I would get a bomb box
when Stuffit Expander tried to delete the original archive. Could this
be a conflict with Norton FileSaver, say?
