Hi folks,

For some reason I am now getting three copies of the following message in the console when launching iMovie 3.0.3, QuickTime player 6.4, Acrobat Reader (5.0), AppleWorks.

The message is:

*** malloc[xxxx]: Deallocation of a pointer not malloced: 0xxxxx. This could be a double free() or.........

(I do not get this message for Safari, iCal, AddressBook, or Mail - so it is possibly a Carbon framework problem)

The apps appear to work normally except one - AppleWorks. This crashes on startup - after displaying 3 copies of the above console message.

I guess I'll have to consider reinstalling the OS, but thought I'd try here first.

Anyone else seen this behaviour at all?

Thanks for reading,
Gary
