    Run the Cleaner only. Hit Analyze at the bottom.

Huh, what's going on here. My computer lets me browse the network just fine and even sees everything there is to see. However, when I want to say, mount a DVD from a networked computer for example, the Network icon is nowhere to be found on the Open File or Folder dialog window. Going back to...
