First let me clearify I am not a current MAC user but seriously thinking
after Leopard is released. i have learned a lot monitoring this list.
I use Firefox. I also convert the bookshare books to htm. I assume this is
an option in the MAC version. You may notice there is an xml version as
well which may work for you.
By the way it was your podcast to blind cool tech that peak my interest in
the MAC.

Scott as I understand it the files you mention are for bookshares own
reader. I delete them and use my brouser instead.

Subject: smil files bogging down Finder
Folks,
I'm curious, I have some smil files which are a part of Daisy books
I've downloaded from Bookshare. When I cursor on to these files, it
causes Finder to bog baddly and it takes a really long time for the
system to settle enough to do anything. Is there something I can do to
prevent Finder from doing whatever its trying to do with these files?
I get the impression that Finder thinks these are some type of media
file and it can't handle them.
Any advice appreciated.
Scott
