I am having some problems using Packit II, Packit III Version 1.0, and
Packit III Version 1.2 to unpack groups of files downloaded from BBSs.
I always get a message saying that I've got bad data and beware of using
the file if it is an application.  This message always occurs while unpacking
the last file in a package.  What am I doing wrong?  I am using Finder 5.3
and System 3.2 on a MacPlus with a Dataframe 20.  I sent a letter to Harry
Chesley about this and his response provided no further clue.

Thanks in advance,
Scott Pector
