Thanks a lot, Tim! I had ejected or trashed several of these, then
when I started wondering what they were, I wondered if I had done
something I shouldn`t have... For now i have stored all the
downloaded installers, as I plan on re-installing the system. I just
have not had the time yet. It is a bit scary though, just because I
never did it before, but now scary can it be. What has been wonderful
all these years, has been that when I have had some kind of problem,
even if I might not think initially that I can, I have always been
able to work it out and fix it. I have never had a need to do a
re-install though. This time that is probably the only wise thing to
do, then start over again, with no french stuff lurking around and
only my own account... :)
Aase :)
These are disk images...not harmful at all. When you are done with it just
eject it and it's gone! Also you can delete the original file that you
downloaded, or you can keep it in storage somewhere in case you need to
re-install some time later. Then just double click it and it'll make that
same disk image again.
So, no, there is no reason to keep them, they're just so you can install the
software from a compressed file.
Tim
