It is your Finder file (not prefs) that has become corrupt and you will need to do a clean install. Opening in RESEDIT may fix it, but not completely. Some files that do this are: ~ATM CP, and Epson Launcher, an extension which should be trashed immediately after installing any Epson printer software, unless you are trying to print over a network with it. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
