For some reason NS 7.2 (and Mozilla 1.7.12 now that I've tried it as
well) replicates my Bookmarks file over and over again during each
session. I haven't been able to tel just when or why. This started
under Jaguar, and continues with Tiger.

I've checked permissions on the file and my Mozilla folder and nothing
seems amiss. What's the cure?

Spotlight

Since i excluded my profile directory from Spotlight, the replicating
stoped.

Interesting. I'll try that, but this has been going on since before I
had a Spotlight installation - under Jaguar 10.2.8.

Well...that solved part of the problem. Now what is happening is that
my Bookmarks file is being duplicated only once - when I close Netscape
- vise multiple times per session.

So I'm back to questioning if the Permissions on my Bookmark file are
gooned. Can anyone tell me what they should be for all cases?
