[G4] CD Burn crashes Mac after burn

[CJ Scaminaci]

There is a version of Toast Lite for OS 9. Might want to check into 
that. As for the mouse freezing, try re-installing the mouse driver (if 
there is one) and check to make sure there is no other mouse drivers 
besides the one the software installed.
