ACL Fix is a simple utility that removes the ACL (Access control list permissions) that is attached to selected files and folders. The Password Reset Utility on the Mac OS X Installation Disc allows you to do this only within the home directory of a user. ACL Fix is useful for example when you install Mac OS X using the Archive and Install option, and want to delete the ACL from old system files and user documents.
Use at your own risk!

The file system is UNIX's achilles heal and ALCs are like walking on hot coals for UNIX. This utility easily fixes them.
The only problem I have found is that the interface permits multiple items to be drug into it but will only process one item at a time. It processes entire folders recursively so the problem is not a show stopper but I do need to drag 12 items in and have it process 12 items ;-) not just one.
