I foolishly copied my idisk to my imac (not normally connected to the
internet) hard disk. Decided it was useless to me and now can't get rid of it.
Changed permissions, dragged it to the trash - it won't go away. Any
suggestions? 100MB of wasted space!

Well, IMO 100mb is a drop in the bucket when you have an 80 or 100 gb HD, but that's besides the point..
Have you tried unchecking the 'create local copy of iDisk' in your .mac preference pane? Try that, and also try deleting your .mac username and password, and the iDisk on the desktop should then become trashable/'ejectable'... /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

We, some of us only have 40GB, but your advice sounds good to me. I'll give it a shot. Thanks.
