Either add MacTCP 2.0.6 (note ADD not replace) this will fix some
problems but may cause others (open button will work, close will not)
OR
remove 2.2.0a and replace it with 2.1.1SD. 
I use the former, and Steve (in the SD) will whole-heartly disagree 
with it; but it works for me. Using 2.1.2SD I can not attach files
to mail. Bottom line; haven't seen a completely clean answer out there
yet.
