System Preferences duplicate icons
All of a sudden, in my system preferences, a duplicate icon for my "Energy Saver" showed up at the bottom under the "Other" section. Any idea how I can get rid of this? If I change the settings in one, they do update correctly on the other. One of those things really bothering me. Thanks for any suggestions.

In these folders there is probly a duplicate file that your system thinks is a Preference Pane, delete it. Sometimes a program will save its .plist file in the wrong place....these things happen.......geist

Okay guys this is a simple one.
Actually, I've never seen a case where the system's own preference panes actually get duplicated as *files* through the PreferencePanes directories. Every instance I've experienced or read about is from the cache bug.
Important correction with your post anyhow: "PreferencePanes" is one word, no space.
