It did.
Thanks!
Ric.

P.S. I filed a bug report with Apple concerning the Disk Utility failed to remedy this.

Greetings: I can't launch the Activity Monitor application found in Panther's Utility directory. What I get is the following listed in the Console:

2005-01-15 15:25:27.783 Activity Monitor[311] The tool is not setuid root - please repair the privileges

I've tried resetting the privileges of all files via the disk utility. It took over an hour. But in the end. No change.

How can I fix this error?
This should fix it:
cd '/Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor.app/Contents/Resources/'
sudo chown root:admin pmTool
sudo chmod u+s pmTool
