Hi Roy. Thanks for the bug report. I have verified that the problem
occurs in all recent Booters _except_ 1.9.7

* If you have time to kill, I would be curious as to why 1.9.6
seems to fail, 1.9.7 suceeds, and and later 1.10.0 fail again
* Don't waste a lot of time on it though. You can always save the
prefs, exit the booter, and then open it again. That always works
* 1.11.1 comes out soon which will fix it by storing the preferences in
a separate file. (the Booter currently writes into its resource fork)
