Try using Disk Warrior to build a new
directory. If this doesn't correct the
problem, you'll have to reformat the drive.

Whoa! -- Don't do anything rash. Your
problem isn't that serious if the Mac is still
running. DONT reformat anything.

Get yourself Disk Warrior, TechTool Pro
or Norton Utilities. Any of them should fix
the problem, and you should be using
one of them anyway.

You might even be able to use a demo
version of one of the utilities to fix the
problem. But buy yourself a copy anyway
for the future.
