I know this one goes back a little, but there might be a fix for it,...and emphasis on the might. :o) After talking with others, some of the problems were fixed by doing the following:- 1) Go to the following web address:- <http://www.versiontracker.com/mp/new_search.m?productDB=mac&mode=Quick&OS_F ilter=MacOS&search=open+transport> 2) Download Apple Open Transport 2.7.6, and mount the image. 3) Do not run the installer, as you just want to grab some extensions. Look for the folder called Installation Files. Inside this folder there are two extensions called "Open Transport" and "Open Transport ASLM Modules". 4) Replace these into your own System Folder/Extensions folder. (Maybe take out the "newer versions first", and store them somewhere else.) 5) Restart and hold your breath, cross your fingers, which ever works best!! 6) Go onto the internet, and resume surfing the way you remember it should be! (OK so 5 and 6 are hopefuls, but worth a shot!!) This should basically replace version 2.7.9 (2.7.8) with 2.7.6 and hopefully fix the problem. Should I place a disclaimer here? If it doesn't work, or makes things worse you can't blame me! ;o) If it does work I would be interested in the feedback! Thanks to all for the helpful hints!!! Enjoy your easter,....perhaps the new easter egg could be two iMac G4's joined together!!! Hmmm...wonder if the easter bunny is on WAMUG? :o) Kind Regards Daniel Kerr -- Daniel Kerr Sales Consultant AppleCentre Joondalup Phone: (08) 9301 5333 Unit 10/ 7 Delage Street Fax: (08) 9301 5444 Joondalup WA 6027 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***The Updated iBook.
