One of my most frequent instructions to Mac OS X users when I get a help request is to open Disk Utility, select the startup disk volume icon, and click Repair Disk Permissions. Quite often that is the only necessary step to get things working again. So I decided to write this script to let you schedule automatic permission repair for once a week. I dont think it could be made much simpler.

There are several automatic tasks that are routinely scheduled for your Mac OS X system by default. If you care to examine the schedule for them and possibly make adjustments, you might be interested in using a free program called Cronnix.
