    I am unable to successfully launch Fetch 4.0 under X. I don't know what changed. It worked fine after I registered the program, but now it simply won't run. Everything else on my system works fine. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Look for a file named "(null).plist" in the Library/Preferences folder in your home directory; removing that file should fix the problem.

    Thanks Jim! That did the trick. What is that file for? Do you know what generated it? Hate to trash something that I don't know what it's used for ;-)

    As best I can tell the file is a preferences file for a misconfigured application. I have not pinned down why it is created, but I have not had any reports of problems caused by removing it.
