[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1347768, member: 131855"] Shot in the dark but here goes. We know the programs work when run as root user but that's not a good solution. Try creating a new user account and allow it to administer the computer. Do the programs run when logged into that account? If so that would suggest either bad preference files for those programs or conflict with something else specific to your account. Also, while repairing permissions did you verify the disk as well? I'm curious about why you are unable to repair permissions. [/QUOTE]
