Subject: Corrupt files on Mac Pro

Hi, Frank,
I'm having trouble sending this letter to WAMUG - I need some advice
very urgently.  I tried sending it from Bill's PC laptop, but they won't
accept it from this unknown sender.  Would you forward it to them,
please? That would be much appreciated.
================================
To WAMUG,
I'm having a very bad day.  It started by  not being able to access the
internet.  Had a long chat with iiNet and established there is nothing
wrong with our connection.

Second problem - in checking Mail accounts, I opened Keychain.  It gave
me the first 2 passwords with no argument, then suddenly, it demanded my
keychain password and refused to accept it.

So I tried using the iPad.  At first, it connected to both the internet
and Mail, but now it seems to have caught the infection, whatever it is,
and no longer will connect.  It puts up the message 'Incorrect username
or password'.

Then I got out an old Mac laptop that had been in retirement.  Exactly
the same thing happened - at first, it would connect with the internet,
and I began composing this letter.  Then things got strange again, and
it no longer connects.  I will transfer the letter to a text file and
transport it by Flash Disk to my husband's PC and try to sent it.

So the problem seems to originate with the 3-year old Intel Mac Pro,
dual 3.2GHz Quad Core, 16 GB RAM running OS 10.6.7.  I repaired
Permissions, but can't think of anything else useful to do.

Suggestions will be gratefully received!

Pat
