Unnecessary capitals removed.

'I downloaded Warcraft 3 patch from Blizzard which was a bin file', but - you failed to provide the web site's URL. Are we to assume you are referring to this web page?

'Opened it with Roxio Toast', no - it did not. Someone assigned 'Toast' to handle '.bin' files. Also, 'StuffIt Expander' v. 9.x is a better choice.

'Did nothing but burned the same file on a CD', someone instructed 'Toast' to burn the same file onto the CD.

If you believe the downloaded '.bin' file is corrupt, etc. - trash it and download it again. This time, (do not double click on it) drag the '.bin' file onto 'StuffIt Expander'.

If 'StuffIt Expander' cannot open the '.sit' files - what error message(s) does it display?

fryke has a spectacular aura aboutfryke has a spectacular aura about
Read the board rules, too. Just a side note.

barhar: I think he meant StuffIt Expander doesn't open anymore. So I guess _that's_ the reason why he can't unstuff things. And probably, in this case, there are no error messages, if the app doesn't really open.

gagas307 - is fryke's assesment correct?, if so - please reply stating such.
Thus, we will go down different paths of possible 'StuffIt Expander' problem solutions; and, not '.bin' and / or '.sit' paths of possible specific problem solutions.
