Two possibilities. 1: Was that hard drive ever mounted on an OS X machine, or did you ever use an OS X machine to put files onto that drive (I get .DS_Store files on my Windows machine all the time, because OS X puts them there when I mount the windows drive on my OS X iMac) 2: They may have come with other applications that are Carbon apps (work in OS 9 and OS X). -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
