I haven't ever had permissions set on my data partition, since at one time I was logging in as different users and needed access to everything without any hassles so at the moment nothing has the "right" permissions and I find it a pain that I need to manually unset the checkbox after a backup.

Dave, can't you whip up a nice fluffy script that would do this? I don't know enough advanced applescript to do this-I've read through your script to reset the volume icon and can't figure out how I might hack it for this. And my usual trick of recording an app doesn't work really well for the finder. If you point me in the general direction I'll try.

Thanks.

Cheers,
Jon
