No, tried that. I've tried choosing the close button and it exits, but the system dialog still remains. I was also having problems with my screen saver related to the harddisk going to sleep. Perhaps it's not related, but since I turned off Speakable Items, my harddisk is going to sleep and it gets reactivated when I press any key. I know this because no speech occurs for a while which was the default behavior which is what I wish. What was happening recently was that I heard speech immediately when I brought the system out of sleep mode. gain, this may have nothing to do with this dialog, but with all of the difficulties I've encountered, I decided to forego Speakables for a while.
