StuffIt Standard Edition 9.0.2 [OS 10.3 up}
Completely redesigned for better performance and expanded functionality, STUFFIT STANDARD solves all your basic compression needs!
• Expander allows you to access any file, download, or attachment
• DropStuff creates self-expanding files for Mac and Windows, .zip archives for Windows users, and .tar archives with StuffIt, BZIP, GZIP, or UNIX compression.
StuffIt Standard incorporates the functionality of StuffIt Expander, DropStuff, DropZip, and DropTar into one convenient program so you can create and access email attachments and downloads with ease.
StuffIt Expander gives users quick and easy access to virtually any Internet downloads or email attachments. Expander handles all popular compression formats including .zip, .tar, .rar, .sit, .sitx, and more.
New Features and Benefits:
• Faster performance! Make .sitx archives faster than ever
• Improved DropStuff user interface now makes it easier to add encryption and more
• Create archive by filtering folders for files that match custom search criteria
• Open .yenc and .cab files
• Integrated HTML Help
Other Features:
• Open virtually any type of compressed or encoded file
• Compress files to a fraction of original size to reduce transfer times and regain disk space
• Make archives that open easily on PC, Mac, Unix, and Linux computers
• Easy-to-use drag and drop interface
• Includes strong 512 bit encryption
• Create self extracting archives for Mac and Windows
Faster Compression
StuffIt Standard Edition 9.0 enables fast file transfers over the Internet to save time. It compresses files up to 98% smaller so email attachments don't bounce back when they exceed the size limits imposed by many email systems. The smaller files save and regain disk space, maximize bandwidth, and accelerate upload and download time. DropStuff 9.0 includes numerous improvements that allow it to compress large amounts of units of data more quickly and efficiently than ever before.
Unified DropStuff
Improved User Interface makes it easier to add encryption and switch between StuffIt formats. DropStuff 9.0 includes a powerful new archiving method that lets users add only those files to an archive that match a specific set of parameters they create. For example, By using the "Stuff with Filters" command from the File menu, users can quickly select their documents folder and archive only those files from that folder that were modified within the last week. Filters can be created that add files to an archive based on their matching name, date, and size based attributes.
Powerful New StuffIt Expander
StuffIt Expander now supports .cab (a Windows archive format) and .yenc (popular with newsgroups) and dozens of other popular compression and encoding archive types.
HTML Help Files
Extensive HTML AppleHelp included

OmniWeb 5.1.1 beta 4 Web Browser [OSX 10.2.8 up]
Top 8 Features
• Powerful Graphic Tabs
Try out OmniWeb's take on tabs: you can quickly switch back and forth between them with easy keyboard shortcuts, change their ordering, and even drag and drop tabs from one window to another.
• Workspaces
Workspaces are saved collections of related windows you've browsed (ie, "Recipes", or "Seattle hiking"). You can drag and drop the contents of one workspace to another, and you can even email workspaces to other OmniWeb 5 users.
• Ad Blocking
OmniWeb 5.0 improves ad blocking by making it easier to block unwanted content including inline frames and plug-in content like Flash.
• Saved Browsing Sessions
Now OmniWeb can save your individual browsing sessions, like which web pages you have in your tabs, your history, and even the location and configuration of the windows on your screen. You can quit your browser and when you launch it again you'll be right where you left off last time!
• Bookmarks
In OmniWeb 5, switching to the bookmarks view shows you "Collections": filtered views of bookmarks, history, bookmarked pages that have been updated since you last visited them, your shared bookmarks, URLs from your address book, and much more.
• RSS News Feeds
Use OmniWeb's built-in 'News Feed' bookmarks for viewing XML/RSS feeds from many popular web sites right in OmniWeb's bookmarks. Now you can always be on top of the latest website headlines without having to use an external application.
• Site Preferences
On each individual domain you can customize how you interact with the content; change the text size, tell OmniWeb where to save downloads for a particular site, even specify on which sites you want to allow pop-up windows and advertising.
• Search Shortcuts
Build shortcuts to any searchable website, like Google or the Internet Movie Database. You can save space on your toolbar by typing your shortcut keywords into the location field, or you can create a Search Shortcut field where all your shortcuts are available from a drop down menu.
