I've had this white MacBook for less than 6 months and it has froze on me multiple times already. I took it to the Mac store and they said to put the OSX discs in to get the original files, cause they thought there might be a corrupted file. So I tried that and today it froze again.

I looked at the logs and the programs that make it freeze are Osex and Macthe Ripper. The whole computer freezes where the keyboard and mouse don't work. I can only shut down the computer with the power button. I'm trying to back up my discs so I can put away my originals. This is my first Mac and didn't think this would be happening.

I tried fixing the permissions, restarting, and loading the original discs. I deleted Osex and this is my first freeze with MactheRipper. Software issue? Should I just use a paid program?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
