FLASH: [ALERT] Confirmed Bug in OS 9

[Frederico]

Hi Folks,


We've been following what appeared to be a bug in OS 9 with certain third 

party extensions since early December.


As many of you have probably read, it's seems to be attributable to OS 9 

itself.


Not everyone will experience the bug, but if you ever crash in any 

application that creates invisible temp files (AGL, Dreamweaver, 

Fireworks, ImageReady, Photoshop, Illustrator, Word, just aobut 

everything, really) while booted in OS 9, you may be experiencing a 

buildup of invisible temporary files.


I wrote a short article explaining it further, and what you can do till 

we see a fix from Apple.

It's not life-threatening, but you should be aware of this and what to do.


BTW, there's several new articles up at the SQ site, more coming, hit the 

News page and look around, subscribe if you want.


Cheers


Frederico
