On a localtalk network, EasyMount provides 'aliases' for System 6.0 and 
down to let you log into a server simply by double-clicking on it. Under 
6.0.1, it was updated to allow aliases to be of any document, application, 
folder... you get the idea. When I had 5.0.4 and 6, I didn't even know 
what it did, but under 6.0.1, I find it quite useful.

: Is it similar to EasyAccess (i.e. a BIG problem) or do I need it

It shouldn't cause you any problems, although my system *would* randomly 
freeze under 6.0 when I installed it -- then again, it coul've easily been 
another extension, but when i removed it, the problem disappeared. Try 
removing it; it certainly won't hurt anything.
