Karl,

Thanks for the help.... A few issues:

When I clicked on security the following menu items were displayed:

-automaticKeyGeneration
-eToyLoginEnabled
-securityChecksEnabled
-showSecurityStatus             (on)
-startInUntrustedDirectory
-warnAboutInsecureContent  (on)

There was nothing that specified setting the folder or secure folders  
for that matter....

Does this mean that all images are placed in the Squeak root directory?

What is an image, by the way? Is it the actual virtual machine or is  
it synonymous
with Java .class files that get loaded by a ClassLoader, in a JVM?

Why aren't images placed along with the .pr files (do the .pr files  
contain images)?

Kindest regards,

Unnsse
