Question: > >I have somehow retained shared folders "Public" and "PC" on my desktop. >My best guess is this is due to some error on my part. My concern is >that it may be causing some of my "crashes." Could you explain to me >how to deal with this? > Answer: On your macintosh, go to the chooser, choose appleshare. Once that is chosen, go to the appletalk zone "ACC", select the file server "userserve". It will say you are already connected. Once you are there, UNCHECK the checked items will be remembered box. If you re-start your computer and these two folders do not re-appear, you have been successful. The server will also automatically disconnect you after a while, but it may slow down whatever your system is doing as long as your are connected, as others access these shared disks over the network.
