Mac OS X Zip Expanding Utility
Firefox (and possibly other applications) may ask you what you want to do with .zip archives that you download from the Internet. If you want to expand them with Mac OS X (rather than StuffIt Expander), you may be unsure of which application actually does the job. You're looking for Archive Utility (in Leopard) or BOMArchiveHelper (in Tiger). In either case, the application is stored in Hard Drive/System/Library/Core Services/. Don't move it from there, though, or you'll confuse matters.

Adam in Your Mac Life Expo Wrap-Up Session
With Macworld Expo a week later than normal this year, we're still clearing out content from the show. For yet another take, this time hosted by the inimitable Shawn King of Your Mac Life, I was joined by Jason Snell of Macworld and technology journalist Leo Laporte for a live discussion of what went on at Macworld Expo. A good time was had by all, and this show is completely different from all the others you may have heard.
Fetch Softworks: Fetch 5.3 has WebView, the easy wayto view files in a browser and copy Web addresses from Fetch.
Also a new look for Leopard, droplet shortcuts, and more.
