I had the corrupt file equivalent whilst using Windows XP on my mac. LW 5 renames the file corrupt. You could try the advice I suggested to pfolk07 here http://www.gnutellaforums.com/genera...tml#post340883 You might want to try repairing permissions also unless you are in the habit of doing it frequently; SAFE Boot & Repair Permissions. If you're using the old LW 4 preferences, you might consider making a backup of it, then deleting it whilst LW is closed. See if that helps things; Deleting LW Preferences folder in OSX.
