I started experiencing some other abnormalities with the system. I could no longer mount a CD, burn a CD, and Disk Copy started having problems mounting disk images. So I decided to re-install the system. Everything works fine now and I can burn CDs again. I have to say, OS X makes it pretty painless to do a clean install of the system and automatically move all of my preferences over. And when I install updates, I always choose the option to download the update to disk so it was relatively easy for me to get everything back up to 10.2.6. I think my problems started when I was experimenting with various shareware and freeware tools to make and burn Video CDs. Something was probably overwritten or deleted.
