Whenever I am using Ichat, a message appears that my headset is having problems, and I always press turn off headset ( not sure whawt this message means). When I go to the bluetooth icon to turn bluetooth off on the top right corner of my computer, the screen darkens and a message appears in about 4 different languages to shut down the computer.
Is this a virus? Is there just a problem with the computer/bluetooth shut off?
Thank you

Its called a Kernel Panic and it seems like your bluetooth headset or the BT module of your Mac is having a problem. First thing to do is update to 10.6.7, see if that fixes it.
MacBook 2.0GHz CD; MacBook Pro 15" 2.4GHz Late '08; PowerMac G4 MDD Dual 1GHz; 3x Xserve G4 1GHz; Mac Mini 2GHz; Big pile of broken and working bits;
