I have had intermittent problems similar to Stev when using Snow
Leopard. Two different times when I clicked on "Learn with guided
examples" and I got the following error message. "The kernel is not
responding to a dynamic evaluation. You may either choose to abort
and restart the kernel or continue waiting." Once Mathematica stop
responding after I clicked on "Document Center" in the "Help menu.
Restarting Mathematica seems to temporally fix the problem
