Well, what you should have done was to create a new message, 'cause now many 
email apps will toss this message in the 'thread' all about the subject as 
mentioned. Having said that, lets move along

Using either the original install CD/DVD that came with the machine, or an off 
the shelf 'generic' OS install disc, do a reinstall using the 'Erase and 
Install' option. No need (not to mention probably not legal) to have all that 
'stuff' that belongs to someone else.

Have they repaired the G5 yet? and/or are you going to have it repaired? If 
not, then when you get the replacement computer stick the G5 HD into an 
external Firewire enclosure, connect to your new machine and then use Migration 
Assistant to copy everything over. DO NOT create any User account on the new 
machine, simply start it up and follow the directions for 'copy from another 
Mac'.
