my wifes' user account seems to be having difficulties with a large number of things
1. safari will not allow bookmarks
2. some apps will not open
3. dock will not keep changes
4. library>preferences has red negative symbol on it, with permission set to Admin, which I reset to her user name, red symbol has remained
5. constantly say no keychain - reset to default!

other users
myself, admin ( root user) and daughter all work okay

I have run disk utility once, while in wifes account, it changed a few things ( that thats what it said) but seems to have no effect on the above

any suggestion on what is going on, and how to remedy the issue
chow

Grab a copy of BatchMod from VersionTracker. This succeeds in changing permissions in Panther where the Get Info command fails miserably.
