Can any of them tell me: does your system run anything like Adobe Type Manager, or After Dark? Or (rummaging through this pile of software that I haven't looked at yet) QuicKeys, FileMagic or POWERmenus? Can you think of a way of implementing hooks for any of these so that a bug in them can't render the system entirely unusable?
