Although it's likely fixed in the latest version, you are probably seeing
a problem in older versions of Stuffit technologies that *do not* support
and can not decompress .bin files created with MacBinary III (true as of
sometime last year). Re-.bin the file using MacBinary II+ and/or try
using the newest Expander version and all should be fine - unless the file
was otherwise corrupted somehow...
Unfortunately, I think ShrinkWrap has been at v3.5 for quite some time (3
years or so?), so the only fix for that may be changing your MacBinary
version to something it supports.

Thanks,
