Weird Mac Issue
I got home the other day and discovered that the trash on my iMac would not empty.
Additionally none of the 4 browsers would refrain from utterly locking up.
I tried to switch partitions but the computer told me that I had to wait until the trash was emptied.
This went on until last night when it occurred to me that most of the things in the trash were from an attached thumb drive I was trying to clear. I ejected the thumb drive and the trash emptied immediately.
So I tossed the thumb drive and now I'm back online.

Check to see if the little lock switch on the thumb drive accidentally got set.
