Question how to set stuffit expander as default in os x?

greetings--

i've run across this problem before with os x and haven't been able to figure out how to fix it short of waiting for the next time i'm doing a re-install. recently os x has decided to default to using OpenUp as its default file translator/decompressor rather than StuffIt Expander, and for the life of me i can't find where the os is setting this preference. it doesn't matter which web browser i'm using. also, setting the preferences directly in stuffit expander to automatically translate all files of a certain type doesn't help. does anyone know where this info is set in os x?

thanks in advance,
heff

Hi there!

All you need to do to solve this is:
Get info for a .sit file, select the 'Open with application' tab, select Stuffit, and click on 'Change all..'
