> Can anyone tell me how to remove menu items that load in the upper > right > hand corner by the clock? Some of the items (the clock, the battery display, your Internet Connection status) you can switch off under the appropriate panes of System Preferences. You can rearrange them by pressing the Command key and dragging the icons; you might be able to remove some of them this way, as well (by dragging them off the menu bar). BRIAN/bpearce at cloud9.net
