[comp.sys.mac.misc] My Mac is acting weird - advice sought

cmm1@cunixa.cc.columbia.edu (Christopher M Mauritz) (09/05/90)

My mac seems to be "losing" files.  If I look for a file under the finder,
it is tucked nicely in its folder where I left it.  However, if I go into
the application that created it and try to use the OPEN feature the file
doesn't show up in the dialog box.  It is beginning to happen much more
frequently and with various applications.  Am I infected with some
nast Mac social disease that I'm unaware of?  I'm using Disinfectant 2.1
and it says I'm virus free.  The funny thing is that if I double-click
on the suspect file it seems to find its parent application fine and
everything is wonderful.  I'm stumped.

I have: Mac IIcx, 5 megs RAM, system 6.0.4, Quantum 40 meg, running 
        Multifinder

Any info would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris
