Hello, the best way to accomplish this is to do an "Erase and install" of the operating system. Unfortunately, this will require an installation disc. However, this would be a very wise investment. Not only will you have a Mac with an error free operating system with no clutter, you will also be prepared for emergencies that may arise. Not to mention the fact that you can upgrade to the latest O.S. (depending on your Mac) as 10.2 is becoming obsolete.
