Here are the apps currently running: Quark PhotoShop Extensis Suitcase iChat Distiller

If you quit all of those, and then re-launch Illustrator CS, is the problem gone?

No its not and its strange when I option+drag the dual cursors do show up like its going to duplicate but once I release it does not.

Wild, sorry man...I've only seen this issue with some 3rd-party application running in the background.

Yea, I can't figure it out. Of course my co-worker caused it somehow because nothing on the machine has changed and I can't even think what to type into Google to fix it.

Can you log in as another user and see if the problem happens?

There are no other user accounts .

oooh . . . 5 GB yeah, I'm just being a jerk tonight. OK, actually I can help out here, try running delocalizer or something like that. That will remove all the foreign language f…

I agree with removing languages that you're not going to use. That saves a LOT of space. But the the apps that come with a (retail) install of OS X hardly take up that much space …

I agree with you - I don't see why an FTP server would require a client to open ports to FTP. I have never had a hosting company require such a thing. What is the name of the host?

How exactly do you expect to be able to transfer data if you won't allow your computer to send it?
