Just a quick note - I downloaded BetterZip because I have a few archives collected I hated to delete, but were apparently damaged in some way. It turns out that in each case, where Stuffit 12 could not open the archive BetterZip could. Apparently in each archive there was a single damaged file . . .

That's a croc! This is a plain commercial product with a free trial period (30 days) whereafter its features will be severely curtailed (who knows, maybe you won't even be able to get at your own encrypted files anymore... how's that for arm twisting to buy, eh?).

At the very least this is 'crippleware'.

I don't trust liars.
Especially not with encryption!
