Hello. Just recently my desktop icons have stopped turning a different color once they are selected. Any ideas? Also I recently deleted some users on my machine and since then I have a "deleted users" folder I cant delete. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Chris

Change the permissions on the Deleted Users folder in Get Info.

Have root enabled? If so, use that bad boy to delete that folder.

Have OS 9 on your system still? Boot in that "old" boy and delete that folder.
