A couple of people have posted saying that after running the MacMan
application, double clicking in the Finder no longer opens things (until
the machine is rebooted).

Is there anyone that this _doesn't_ happen to?  It sure is bugging the
heck out of me and my Mac+ running Finder 6.0/System 4.2.

I ran into a similar problem last year on someone else's machine.
(Double-clicking wouldn't work until AFTER an application had been run.)

Does anyone understand what's going on here, and more importantly, how
MacMan can be fixed?  (Is its author listening?)
