I posted a problem eariler that I thought was related to Quicktime. But I just realized it has nothing to do with Quicktime, it has to do with the letter "Q". If I download anything that starts with the letter "Q" it gives a message and won't save to computer. If I open a notepad and try to save it with a name starting with Q, I go where I saved it at and it isn't their. If I take a file that is already on my computer and rename it anything that starts with a "Q" when I hit enter to save it the file just vanishes. If I install a program, any files or folders that start with "Q" don't save to my computer, does anybody have a solution to this?


No problems with files or folders whose name begins with "Q" here, nor have I ever heard of anything similar occurring anywhere else.

What is the specific text error message you mention, but fail to quote? That may contain a clue as to what's happening.
