    PRAM zaps its self ?

    Hi. For the last few weeks, when I boot my 17" flat screen G4, everything has reverted to all the 'system preferences' defaults. I even lose my mail.app and it opens as a new account without any of my old mail or settings. All my settings for downloaded apps have disappeared from the dock...
