That is a unique work around. Seems strange to set an applications prefernce settings from the Get Info Window. Thanks for the heads up.

Same problem here running 10.3.8. It also made me reboot in order to get the network back up. Probably a small softwaretweak is all that is necessary.

Had the same "not quitting" problems. Unchecking the GPS plugin in "Get info" fixed the problem for me. Thanks for the heads-up on this!

Alf Watt - thanks so much. I got tired of having to force quit and was going to try to revert back to a previous version. You're solution worked perfectly. I'd buy you a beer if I could!
