About
Many times when using MacPPP the error message: The control panel "Config PPP" cannot be used now because not enough memory is available. is encountered when our Web Browser launches a third or fourth helper program. "Config PPP" is forced closed at this time by the Finder and when we attempt to open it afterwards we are greeted by the error message: Config PPP Error! Opening Preferences This program, "pppPrefFix", is an AppleScriptR application which was inspired by a work around to this problem of Lofty Becker's. He found that he could solve the problem of opening "Config PPP" being unable to open by duplicating the PPP preference file, moving the old file out of the preference folder, renaming the copy to the original's name, and then opening "Config PPP". By double clicking "pppPrefFix" you launch an AppleScriptR application which automatically performs the above outline steps. You only need to make sure that you have at least 200 kbytes of free RAM before double clicking. This program requires system 7 or greater, the "AppleScriptTM" extension installed and the extension "Finder Scripting Extension" installed or that you have the runtime library "FinderLib" somewhere locatable with the finder. You also should have ran "Config PPP" at least once before attempting to use this program. This version corrects the problem encountered with system 7.5.2.
