Microsoft Virtual PC 6

may not take kindly to having
Connectix Virtual PC 5.0.4

installed on the same machine and running at the same time.
Norton Utilities 6.0

No! No! No! Norton Utilities lost its lustre with Mac OS 8.1. Ever since then, its Disk Doctor and Speed Tools/Disk have caused more headaches in hard drive issues than the combined effects of dropped hard drives, magnets, and power surges. If you use these utilities on any system newer than Mac OS 8.0, beware, it is Russian Roulette how long your machine will stay safe. Backup your data frequently before using any of these utilities.
Apple SCSI Card Patch - Apple Atto SCSI Card Hack

If you have a SCSI card, sure, but not everyone running 9 uses SCSI. Remember, the first non-SCSI Mac was an 8.1 machine, the original iMac G3/233.
Motorola MathLib Update

Never had this, never needed it.
DivX Doctor 2.2

DivX has created issues for some people using some Quicktime software.
Iomega Tools IomegaWare English 8.6 - 9.x

If using a zip drive, be careful with this, as sometimes it actually fails to work properly.
OpenDoc

Only needed if you are going to use Cyberdog.
XPostFacto 4 - Mac OS X Boot

Only needed if you are going to install an unsupported version of Mac OS X. Has nothing to do with Mac OS 9.
.smi files are disk images for specific software installers. On their own, they do you no good. If the installer has a document inside them, be sure to drag it to the appropriate place if it isn't itself an installer application.
