[moneydance] New Java not compatible with Moneydance???

[Gordon Alley]

This solution has already been described in another thread, but I'll repeat
it here.
The problem for me was the 3rd-party Find and Replace extension. After
removing it from the ~/.moneydance/fmodules folder, the problem disappeared.
Even though the .moneydance folder is hidden (by the period), you can open
it by using the Finder->Go->Go to Folder... menu command.
