FWIW, running Verify Disk Permissions is a waste of time...there's never
any harm in actually repairing them.
You can Google ACL to discover that it's an Access Control List. It's
an extended way of managing permissions on a file or folder that's
sup****ted in Leopard (maybe in Tiger, don't recall).
There's really no action you can take, that I'm aware of, since that
message from Disk Utility is informational -- it's telling you it found
one when it didn't expect one, and does nothing about it.
