Hello, Ran into a problem my kids were playing on the computer and went into the AT EASE and messed something up. now everytime I reboot the computer i get a big file folder and each item i click an icon it asks for a password, which i don't have. I have tried rebooting the computer and turning off extentions to correct this problem but a no go. Oh yeah I'v got a macintosh Performa

Try starting holding the Space Bar down and see if the Extension Manager opens. If it does you can turn At Ease off and boot. Can't do this in the new versions.

If bobs help don't work, hold down shift when starting to bypass extensions then goto extension manager.

First of all, boot the system from your "restore" cd, or a "disk tools" floppy. Go into the system folder on your hard drive and find the at ease folder. Inside this folder, you should find an at ease prefs file. Drag it to the trash but don't empty the trash yet! Reboot from the hard drive. This is supposed to restart at ease in an initialized state...No Password!
Once you are up, go into at ease setup and turn it off. Exit and reboot. At this point you can trash the at ease components safely (or set up new passwords etc.) If you trash stuff before this, you may corrupt your OS and need to rebuild.
Good Luck!
