Quack died..

Got to love it!
One of my staff double-clicked and opened a Quack file today.
When Quack launched, it gave an error saying something like "The copy of QuakXpress something or another has gone bad. You must re-install this copy of Quack." (I didn't see the message)
Like we have time to re-install this pig! I think I'll just convert everything to INDD.

I think this has happened to me before. Ignore that message. Trash prefs etc.. and reboot.

It wasn't the Quark 7 beta1 was it?

No Beta. Sorry for the lack of details guys.
OS X 10.3.9 - Quack 6.5 - Dual 1.25G, G4 w/ 2GB RAM.
I'll try the prefs > reboot. No hurry to fix it. We don't get as many Quack files as we used to. Mostly INDD & PDF.. and Word & Excel ofcourse!!
