StuffIt Deluxe® 2009 (13.0.0.19) for Windows
============================================

This is the latest version of StuffIt Archiver.

It offers additional 30% compression of JPEG images
without any loss of quality.

It supports Windows Vista, and takes full advantage
of the new generation of multi-core processors from
Intel and AMD.

Version 2009 brings the following improvements:

- StuffIt Droplets

  Completely customize your workflow. Create unique
  Compression and Destination settings, and assign them
  to a Droplet. Dragging files and folders to that
  Droplet will create an archive using the settings from
  the Profile you specified. You can make as many unique
  Droplets as you wish. Also, you can use Droplets even
  if StuffIt is not already running, just save your Droplet
  to the Desktop, or any convenient place on your system and
  then drag files and folders to the Droplet icon anytime.
  StuffIt will process the files without launching the full
  StuffIt application.

- Contextual Menu enhancements:

  Recent and most-used commands now appear at the top-level
  of the StuffIt Contextual Menu for quick access.

  You can now Schedule backups right from the StuffIt
  Contextual Menu

- StuffIt's User Interface has been modified and simplified
  to make it easy to use.

  StuffIt's Start Page now provides easy access to all of
  the Wizards and Tools as well as Tutorials and News from
  Smith Micro.

  StuffIt's Quick Tools page provides Drag-and-Drop targets
  for easy archive creation, expansion, or browsing.

  StuffIt's Archive Manager page now presents more archive
  types.

- Encoded archives (ie: foo.zip.uu) are now browsable

- Support for more formats:

  Expansion support for 7z (ie: foo.7z)

  Expansion support for LZMA (ie: foo.lzma)

  Expansion support for segmented Zip (ie: foo.zip, foo.z01,
  foo.z02, etc.)

  Expansion support for split archives (ie: foo.rar.001,
  foo.rar.002, etc.)

- Major SEA Builder enhancements including:

  Make smaller SEAs by storing the Payload on a Remote FTP
  server

- StuffIt Plugins for Adobe Photoshop now support CS4.



How to install in 5 easy steps:
===============================

1. Install the application as usual but do not
   fill any info, just skip by clicking "Next"
   if asked.

2. Open Task Manager and kill the process named
   "ArcNameService.exe".

3. Copy common.dll and ArcNameService.exe from
   the crack folder to the installation folder
   (usually Program FilesSmithMicroStuffIt)

4. Double-click click_me_1.reg and click_me_2.reg
   files located in the crack folder.

5. That's it! Enjoy!



Note #1:
========

ArcNameService.exe is an archive indexing feature
which is in my personal opinion useless.

If you want to keep it, then you should not copy
ArcNameService.exe from the crack folder and you
should not double-click on click_me_2.reg.



Note #2:
========

File StuffIt13.0.0.19.msi has been processed to
add DISABLEADVTSHORTCUTS property and to set
AgreeToLicense property to "Yes" by default for
your convenience.

If you are comparing it to the original installer
that is why it differs a bit.

File Common.dll has been patched to enable Deluxe
version functionality without requiring serial and
without expiring.

File ArcNameService.exe has been patched so it does
not start because that service annoys me.

Since those files are digitally signed, some virus
scanners may notice that the signature does not match
but don't get alarmed -- my files are always clean.
