As suggested above, the Keychain Access application is found in the Utilities folder, a subfolder of the Applications folder. You can go directly to the Utilities folder from the Finder by selecting the "Utilities" entry from the "Go" menu in the Finder's menu bar. In the folder window that appears, find and double-click on the "Keychain Access" application icon. Nothing hidden about it at all. -- Jim Gibson

The Mad Microbe is a troll, and an idiot, and off his rocker, but he ain't dizzie. For one thing, dizzie posts from a BellSouth address, and the Mad Microbe posts from Washington state. You have a problem reading headers, don't you? -- email to oshea dot j dot j at gmail dot com.
