Running Tiger 10.4.3. The moment I brought FontSight up, TextEdit was a TKO. Continuous problems thereafter. Dashboard disappeard from the Dock. Dock is freezing and has a jpeg rendering problem. Firefox is hanging. VersionTracker information disappeared. FontAgent Pro, QuickSilver, StickyBrain, and numerous other applications continuously refuse to open. The problems are devastating! Apple Tech helped get Dashboard back in the Dock but the other problems remain. I have tried OK Font, Smasher, Font Doctor, TinkerTook Pro, XRay, have taken applications down by the number and reloaded others. At this time, I am turning to Disk Warrior. If that doesn't help, I suppose I shall resort to a reinstall. I don't want to lay all this on FontSight, but all happened when FontSight was installed and TextEdit when down.
