Thanks for the suggestion but unfortunately the finder will not even appear in the force quit menu. When I click on the finder in the dock it says "Finder Not Running".

I was running Mozilla 1.2b yesterday while running ICQ and iTunes in
the background. Upon trying to "Save Page As" the finder crashed. I
lost all my finder windows and my desktop icons disappeared. The menu
bar and dock remained visible and functional. I had things that I
still needed to do online so I didn't try restarting at the time. I
came back to my computer today and performed a restart. Now when the
computer starts up the top menu bar flashes on and off until I load an
application from the dock and I still can't run my finder.
I have been left only to be able to run my applications in the dock and
my system preferences via the menu bar.


Have you tried going to the Apple Menu and open up the Force Quit
window. From here you can restart the Finder and this could solve the
problem... I have had a similar issue that this fixed...

Good luck,

Phil
