Last night I tried out the method described in the last few days of
installing an ExitToShell FKEY into the finder. That in itself worked
fine. I then tried starting _Launch 2.5 (out of date, I know) and a few
other programs, killing the finder, and restarting it with _Launch. The
finder started, opened its windows, but then got hung. I think it was
in HFSDispatch when it hung.

Any idea what went wrong? Will _Launch 3.0 fix things?
(This was system 6.0.3, finder 6.1 on an SE).
