I have LabHand installed on iMac's of all flavors, tray and slot
loading, along with G3 AIO's, 5400's and 5500's and have not seen this
type of behavior yet. I've got LabHand set to only update once per
day. Could this behavior be caused by LabHand comparing the HD to the
update folder periodically?
All machines are running either Mac OS 8.6 or Mac OS 9.2.2. Some may be
at Mac OS 9.1, but definitely none still at 9.0.4. I'm taking them all
to 9.2.2 as quickly as possible to eliminate the MS Office "out of
memory" errors. My main reason for installing it is the CD ejection and
showing the Control Strip.
