Upload from Parental Control account causes kernel panic

Using Scratch release 1.4, version 3.8.14b7y on Mac OS X 10.5.8 on an Intel iMac (early 2006), every attempt to upload a Scratch project from a Parental Controlled Mac user account results in a kernel panic.  It's a bit frustrating to have to get an administrator to do the upload, but actually killing the machine is very, very bad behavior for an app regardless of the level of the user account.

Is anyone else observing this?  Has anyone figured out a workaround beyond calling an administrator?

Thanks.

There used to be a stickied topic about this, I don't know why it's gone now.

Edit: I found it: http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=6506

I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Re: Upload from Parental Control account causes kernel panic

there are so many ways around parental controls. Try booting your computer with linux off a live cd. That way you can bypass.
