I've been experiencing some weirdness on my IIsi lately, perhaps some
kind soul can offer an explaination.

When I try to delete a file or folder, I drag it onto the trash and drop
it.  The copying files window comes up, then my hard disk spins.  The trash
doesn't get fat or anything, and the file or folder stays where it is.

What the !@$# is going on?

Should I try to rebuild my desktop?  What is the magic spell to do that
on boot?

Any ideas, tips, or exorcism rituals would be appreciated.

AdvThanksAnce, Chris
