You may have noticed, like I have, that when you save files to a USB thumb drive and take them to a Windows PC, the thumb drive is filled with extra files. For instance, if you save an image called Apple.jpg to your thumb drive, Mac OS X creates another file called .Apple.jpg file (the resource fork) and a .DS_Store file. These files are invisible on a Mac but end up being confusing to Windows users. BlueHarvest is a System Preference pane that prevents these files from being created. Great for cross-platform users!

Update: This software has gone the way of the almighty dollar. It is no longer freeware.
