Hi ho... I hope this hasn't been asked already --- I've been gone for the holidays and just discovered the problem. I read about WDEF A and B, and checked my system with Disinfectant 1.5. No virus of any type found. Since I use Gatekeeper, I then decided to drop the Gatekeeper Aid INIT into my system folder. Again, ok. Until, just yesterday, when I tried to Get Info on the Finder. Click on the Finder, Get Info, and zap. Cursor freezes, various ugly noises, etc etc. and then a reboot. I have a billion INITs running, but narrowed it down to Gatekeeper Aid by pulling things in and out of the system folder and rebooting. The problem seems only to happen with the Finder, i.e. I can get info on any other file, and I haven't found any other problems. Still, it's a little disconcerting, so I thought I'd drop a note and see if people know about the quirk, and if there's a fix. Thanks! - --- Sean SE/20 with internal 20 meg and external Microtech Nova 40.

I still have the problem even running only GK Aid and GK.) +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Sean P.
