Re: Applications and folders appearing twice in results
1) Do you have Find All Applications turned on in the catalogue preferences? If so, turn it off. 2) Do you have a backup drive connected? If so, make sure it has not been added to Quicksilver's catalogue. 3) Do you have any catalogue sources set to search to an infinite depth? If so, change that. If an infinite depth search finds an alias or symlink, it will follow the alias and index everything on the other end. This can get especially bad if the alias points to one of its own parent folders.

I've noticed this myself for months and was about to say “You're not alone but I have no idea how to fix it”, but I just started theorizing and looking at my catalog and I think I've figured it out. Do you have “Recent Objects” selected in your catalog? (It's under the Quicksilver section.) Turning that off (and rescanning the entire catalog) seems to have eliminated the duplicates for me. -- Rob McBroom http://www.skurfer.com/ It's not that I think guns, drugs, prostitution, swimming, eating and reading should be legal. It's just that no one on Earth has the authority to make them illegal.
