It’s never been a secret that Google uses your personal information (web history and browser data) by default to personalize your search results. Basically what it means is that what you see for some Google searches is (slightly) different from what other people see for the same searches.
You may like the feature (but want to switch it off for some searches) or you may want to disable it completely – it’s up to you and your purposes.

AllExperts Question July 2011, PowerMac G4 can not modify CD-RW
My AllExperts Mac OSX Q&A http://en.allexperts.com/q/Macintosh-OS-1063/indexExp_16292.htm
Q:
PowerMac G4 – OSX 10.4.11
I cannot modify a CDRW even though I am the administrator . Get Info shows my name as owner
the read write is dimmed, the access is dimmed, the Ignore Ownership is checked but I still have no control over the the disk.It tells me it cannot be modified. What gives
A:
Internal CD drive? – look in System Profiler and check the Disc Burning – the drive may not be a CD-RW drive.
Can’t modify A CD-RW? Or ANY CD-RW?
Have you ever been able to do this?
If you have, what brand was able to be modified? Using the same brand now?
Was the CD-RW created on your computer? Was it created on a Mac? If created on a PC, there can be problems with modification, or it can be locked.
I would test with a New Blank CD-RW and test.
Highlight the CD-RW and get info. Uncheck Ignore Ownership, close Get Info, open it again, and see if the options have changed.
You can look up your computer’s specs at http://everymac.com
Start up in Safe Mode (shift key down) check the status – there may be non apple software interfering.
Open Disk Utility (utilities folder) and see what it says about the CD
Doing monthly maintenance is a good idea.
I use AppleJack most frequently

AllExperts Mac OSX question July 2011 Mac Mini Desktop Icons and Erratic Mouse
My AllExperts Mac OSX Q&A http://en.allexperts.com/q/Macintosh-OS-1063/indexExp_16292.htm
Q:
My PC is mac mini, OS X.4.11.
An odd anomaly has begun when I boot up the PC.
All icons on desktop have enlargened to max size, the text within
is enormous, folders the same. If I shut down and restart, 4 or 5 times, 3the problem vanishes, only to return again.
SIMULTANEOUSLY, my apple pro optical mouse has begun to
be quirky, the cursor leaps and jumps around, settles down, then
gets wacky again for 2 or 3 minutes. I have never seen this quirkiness before and don’t know how to troubleshoot it !
A:
Running a monthly maintenance utility is one of my main recommendations – Mac or Windows.
On Mac, I prefer AppleJack. It runs in Single User Mode (white text on a black screen). This allows it to run fsck (file system check) the same utility that Safe Mode runs at atartup and Disk Utility runs on hard drives other than the current startup drive.
AppleJack review http://www.macworld.com/article/135377/2008/09/applejack15.html
AppleJack download http://applejack.sourceforge.net/
Another option is YASU (yet another system utility)
The size of the Finder Desktop Folders is set in the Desktop View Options under View menu
If you change the settings to your preference without any other programs running and no Finder Windows open and restart the Mac it may fix it.
OR delete the com.apple.desktop.plist in your USER > LIBRARY > PREFERENCES folder
The flaky mouse is most likely a dying battery.
Second mostly likely a less than ideal surface – try a manila folder.
Third most likely, the mouse needs replacing.
Fourth, the lense on the bottom needs cleaning.
