Hmmm. I can't quite figure out what your problem might be. Did you  
follow the installation instructions in the README file in the  
Geomview.app directory? There are some steps beyond just moving the  
Geomview.app directory to LocalApps.

Even if you did not follow these steps, however, it should not have  
hung. Are you on a network, or a standalone system? If you ARE on a  
network, is the LocalApps directory local or mounted? How about your  
home directory (this *might* be important if you did not follow all  
the installation instructions).

Hopefully, we can figure out what the problem at your site is.
