Hi
Yes, first thing I did, then I rebuilt my volume indexes. The
problems still persist after doing this.

Subject: some recent OS X annoyances
Hi everyone
Well, it had to happen, my installation of OS X is starting to
act up
a little. I've noticed two rather annoying behaviors that have
cropped up within the past few weeks that were not present before.
1. While in finder, when browsing a folder, occasionally I will be
taken back to my home directory. I don't know why, and it seems to
happen at random, though it appears to be more common when browsing
remote folders rather than local ones. This can also happen when
command+tabbing back to the finder, it will simply put me in my home
directory for no reason.
2. When initially starting the computer then loading up Safari,
sometimes cmd+l to open a web location will cause Safari to quit.
There's no dialogs, no errors, no crash reports. It just quits and
that's it, reminds me of the behavior I get in Linux when a GUI app
segfaults (though in Linux at least I can see an error message in
the
status console). This is the more annoying behavior by far, as I
have
to play around a little to get it working correctly again. Sometimes
moving to the address bar with the VO cursor will fix it, sometimes
not and I have to unlink the cursors and then click the mouse on the
address bar.
Has anyone seen either of these behaviors before or did I mess
something up somehow? I'm wondering if it might be time to give my
Mac an OS reinstall.
