Very strange.  Every time I boot to XP (using bootcamp) the time is set
at 4 hours ahead of the current time.  It keeps the correct timezone
(eastern US), but it's always exactly 4 hours ahead.  I change it back

Got something to do with The Epoch?
Got this really weird problem that I think I can trace to fast user

in a clean environment) I get a zombie python process that I of course

I tried to change the icon on a folder that I was placing in the
dock.(Folders placed in the dock all look the same and are not titled
or labeled with color.) I followed the Mac Help instructions to no

The subject says it all. If I leave my iMac unattended for somewhere
between 2-3 hours, it will power down or crash. I'm not sure which,
since I'm never there to see it happen. There is nothing in the logs to
indicate the reason for the shutdown or anything suggesting a crash. I

I'm running a Mac G3 dual processor 450 with OS X 10.4.7 on it. When I
open the finder and click on the Network icon, I see nothing. When I
use the Connect to Server option on the Go menu, I can type in an

I changed my ISP and after deleting my account in the mail preference,
