.DS_Store files

I am using the Superlab trial on mac OS X. I have several stimuli lists that are using folders. Whenever I change anything within the folders, Finder automatically creates an invisible .DS_Store file to keep track of my preferences. These files are being pulled up by Superlab when I run my experiment. When Superlab comes across one of these files, it gives me an error message saying Superlab was unable to open the file. This is also messing up the pairing of my stimuli in the trials. Is there an easy fix to this problem? Thanks!

This is an issue that has been fixed for the upcoming 4.0.3 update.

In the meantime, there are utilities that will remove these files for you.
