With MacMachBegone! you can make those pesky mach kernel files invisible in Mac OS 9

I currently reboot quite a bit between Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X. Every time Mac OS X starts up it recreates the 'mach' and 'mach.sym' files and they become visible next time you boot Mac OS 9. This is a very simple program which makes them (and a couple more) invisible so that they don't clutter up the hard disk. It is very fast (you hardly notice it launch) and has a very small file size.

The program makes the following files/folders invisible (if they exist):
* automount
* mach
* mach.sym
* mach_kernel
* .DS_Store
* .FBCIndex
* .FBCLockFolder

MacMachBegone also looks for a file called '.hidden' in the root directory of each volume and makes any files/folders listed in there invisible as well.

What's New:
Looks at the OS X .hidden files.
