This wont delete your history index (which provides the full text search available for your history) Just a lock file that prevents multiple copies of OmniWeb to use the index at once.
Thanks Troy.
I was most definitely only running one copy ... it's all I ever do, and as I said, I had just booted the computer. I don't know why OW could have not shut down properly, as I always close all running apps manually before shutting down the computer.
Anyway, the next time I tried to use OW it behaved normally ... most strange!
