What can I do to stop the Play / Pause button from opening iTunes? Worked perfectly for me as well. Awesome! |

A top-down terminal On any new Mac, Visor is consistently one of the first programs I install. Set a keyboard shortcut to enable showing/hiding the Terminal and you're off to the races. I prefer fading it in rather than sliding down, but that's just me. |

Interrupting the “Spinning Wheel of Death”? Interesting, Bart. I wasn't aware that this was actually the case. Thanks! |

Interrupting the “Spinning Wheel of Death”? istat menus (islayer.com/apps/istatmenus) is another good app along the same lines as MenuMeters. Any tool that shows you system diagnostics will be helpful troubleshooting this kind of issue. |

Interrupting the “Spinning Wheel of Death”? Also true, though I read at one time that if the check is run from the command line it's more thorough because there are far less "in-use" OS files for it to contend with. Don't know if that's still the case or not. There are also those of us that prefer the comfort of a command line. ;) |

Interrupting the “Spinning Wheel of Death”? If you're hearing any kind of "clicking" noise physically coming from the hard drive, then Jeff's probably bang-on and your HDD is about to fail. I had this happen to an old iBook a couple of years back... beachballing, programs hanging/crashing, and a clicking hard drive. One day, the damn thing just wouldn't turn on and I was left with a pretty white paperweight. |

Is there a lightning-quick alternative to Firefox when all I want is simple browsing? If you're on a Mac (OS not specified in the original quesiton), though, the Chrome development is lagging way behind. On Windows, though, Chrome is indeed pretty awesome. |
