I just installed Kaleidoscope 1.6 and I am now having problems with my Global Village fax software.
(The following was written by Greg Landweber, the creator of Kaleidoscope.)

There is a bug in Kaleidoscope 1.6 that causes a crash whenever you click on a scroll bar in any of the Global Village FAX windows. This problem happens with all color schemes, and only when you click on a scroll bar. You should be able to FAX without problems if you avoid clicking any scroll bars. I have just fixed this conflict, and I hope to release a new version of Kaleidoscope in a week or two with the fix. That new version will also fix problems with Alpha, WindowShade, Church Windows, and several other scrollbar-related problems similar to the one described above.
