First you have to explain to me how you bought freeware.

It's quite possible that OnyX could have a bug dealing with such a 
large amount of RAM. Contact the developer and see if he's had any 
similar reports -- ISTR that he used to but supposedly fixed those 
problems. What version are you running (latest version for Jaguar is 
1.3.1)? If you are using anything higher than that, you've downloaded 
the Panther version and that might be the problem right there.

See above, but also explain what you mean by "ran" the program. Did you 
tinker with a lot of settings? Did you run the "automate" section?
