I've been experiencing some errors on my second HD.  One of the errors
are reported in the "security check output" cron message.  It says:

checking setuid files and devices:
find: /usr2/programs/pine: Input/output error

pine is a directory, and I cannot access it manually.  I've run fsck,
but I'm not very familar with how to run it, and it said that there
were some blocks it couldn't read, but didn't do anything about it.
It also said something about it being a soft error.  I suppose that
means it's not a physical error on the HD?  Please  say I'm right. :)

If someone could help, I'd like it a lot.  Thanx in advance.
