Black screen? I suspect it is related to your view options. Personally I view as List. I have Genius turned off & Hidden. Grid & Cover Flow view options may show a black background for you. I also have Artwork column and Column Browser hidden. Find these options under View menu.

If you suspect Norton is affecting things then disable it as a temporary measure to see if it is at fault.

Thanks I will try the Norton idea.
I'll disable the Firewall too.

When I say screen.I mean a transparent grey-black comes down like a rolling garage door.Where in the middle says to reboot your computer in three or four different languages.
Totally freezes my OS until I reboot it up.

I also run Firefox 3.5.4 which this version has had bugs also since it came out.

Thanks for your time,again.

The Firewall was the problem.
I disabled it and it was smooth sailing all the way.
Thanks for your input!
