Hello Everyone,

I am new to mac. I got a mac mini and had panther and just upgraded to tiger. I downloaded some icon files from iconfactory for the mac and they are in .bin format. And Tiger does not recognize the file.

In panther, I could just double click and it would just extract it automatically into a folder on the desktop.

Thank You
Amer Mall
