Compatibility:

This package was apparently released right after System 7.5.3, and has a few problems with that OS. Predictably, it might also have some problems with subsequent Mac OS releases. There are various utilities, and many of them integrate tightly into the system, so you should be wary of their effects in OSs released after System 7.5.3.
