Well from a security perspective, one person's unintentional alias might
become a hacker's intentional alias in the unfortunate event of
unauthorized computer access. For that reason it might prove helpful if
Apple in one of its future releases would arrange for an alias cleaning
tool which would not touch any operating system aliases nor touch any
deliberately defined aliases by a user or root on the computer.
Deliberate definition would include taking actions through authentication
that would store the alias in a database either a user's own database or
root's database. On Sat, 11 Sep 2010, Sarah Alawami wrote:

Hi Michael!
The command to make aliases is [ command+l ] I do not know why you would be
using that command unless you think it does something else!
Or you are hitting it by mistake!
Why you can not delete them I do not know, I thought you just sat on it and
pressed delete!

Hi.
Sometimes, apparently only when I am in Finder, I'm accidentally entering a
keyboard combination that is generating Aliases to other things in my Finder
Window.
So here are my questions:
1. What keyboard combination creates Aliases and does this keyboard
combination create them, even if one isn't in Finder?
2. Why can't I seem to delete them?
I may be creating Aliases from outside Finder; I just don't really know for
sure.
Thanks for the enlightenment!
Mike
