Hi Bill: One of my concerns is that my computer is running fine. I don't
have any issues with freezes or anything like that. Just the Software
Updater not working, and I guess that's not a huge issue. I don't want to
start doing something that might cause a lot of conflicts. I do have
Conflict Catcher, and File Buddy. I've run Conflict Catcher and it doesn't
reflect that I have any conflicts on my system. I just happened to see
these and was wondering if they are a part of 9.2.2 and if not, is it
alright to delete them or remove them. I see some talk about Hyper Card
from time to time, but I'm not sure what it is, or how to use it. I didn't
know if it's a program that the computer uses or needs to read other
programs, or is it a stand alone program that is just there like many of
the OS 8.6 programs and earlier Mac programs were. I shudder at the thought
of doing a "clean install" as I don't want to cause any problems with what
is otherwise a very smooth running system. Thanks for the info.
Aloha,
Ron Ward
