Screen of death
My son got a new USB wireless adapter for his MDD running 10.4.x. He stuck it in and restarted the computer before putting in any drivers for it. The computer went into startup mode then immediately shut down. Now every time it starts up, it goes into the grey screen of death (the one that says the computer must be restarted by holding down the power button.) If you leave it alone, it goes away and starts up. How to get this screen to quit appearing??? Thanks!

You're saying you get a panic screen, and if you leave it alone, it continues to boot normally? I've never heard of this before. I'd guess perhaps you're missing something - perhaps it's rebooting a 2nd time automatically?

XmlLayer window in Firefox
I have a window in Firefox that's labeled/named 'XmlLayer' under the window bar. When I scroll to it to show (usually I have about 4 or more windows open) the toolbar disappears except for the Firefox label beside the Apple icon. Firefox has gotten noticeably slower in the last week or so as well. I don't want to erase everything as Firefox remembers passwords that I don't and I don't want to go through putting them all back in again. What is this and should I get rid of it? If so, how?
