In light of a Chill channel coming to XM, this week’s featured music is by Freeform Five and the song is titled “Easy” off of the album “Strangest Things”.

It removes the /apphook/ directory in the ~/Library/InputManagers/ directory, removes the malicious file latestpics.tgz in the /tmp/ directory, and makes the permissions stronger on the ~/Library/InputManagers/ folder.
