Bob,
My name is Cheryl and I will be helping you. Stuffit Expander is a program that will automatically unstuff or decompress files that you receive from downloads or attachments on emails. Also it kicks in for any files that are compressed on disks or CD's. All you do is double click on a file that has .hqx or .sit at the end.
DropStuff is a program that will compress files for you that you want to fit on a disk or send via email as an attachment. The compression makes for a faster download/upload and ensures that it gets to it's destination without corruption or missing pieces.
Neither program is meant as a space saver. You could use Dropstuff to compress a file for back up on a disk. For space saving you will need StuffitDeluxe with Space Saver. Space Saver will compress files for you and then uncompress them when you need them.
I hope this helps you. Let me know if I can be of more assistance.
