I'd also like to know if there's a patch to fix this.  I like the
beep, this is the only annoying problem.

- Also -  (two questions for the price of one, you lucky devils!)

Can anyone tell me something about 'acur' resources?  What I specifically need to
know is what makes them work?  Is it application code or is it built into the
System?  (I want to take the Rotating Earth acur & CURS and use them in all my
applications, not just the Finder.  I'd be every bit as happy with a version of
WatchInit that does it.)

Thanks,
