Correct. A malicious app could even do this deliberately. >Since the >torrent file format is standard, Apple declaring it would be by far >the safest thing, and pretty much the only thing that would make me >remove the extension check (instead of just checking UTI). Correct. And LS seems to always prefer Apple-provided UTIs. >I have reported the bug already.

I'll refrain from an OT rant now. :) BTW: the Carbon list would probably be better for UTI questions, at least one LS guy hangs out there. -- ____________________________________________________________ Sean McBride, B.
