______________________________________________
ok finished DLing on my 733Mhz G4 quicksilver 10.3.3 and on my 800Mhz G4 ibook 10.3.3

Clean install, no restarted need, restarted anyway still going good, and tested the Help Security flaw.

Have to say Apple came back quick for this one. Thank you apple.
For reading purposes you can look at this site on
yahoo about it.

Maybe so, but I've never seen a security update that wasn't dated the exact date it was first released. I think I'll wait.

What do you expect when you start advertising the Trojan with the jelly that heat up with use.

Sort of an odd TV commercial.

I was just trying to make a post and it wouldnt let me put that green one with the big teeth where i wanted it either. So i just put it at the end...

Sparky's · May 21, 2004

This reply coming via FireFox

Smilie works fine!!

OmniWeb and Camino next.
Don't like FireFox=no spellcheck

OK this edit is in OmniWeb.... no smilies :>(

back with Camino....

Interesting first time in Camino and I get an error trying to read bookmarks... anyway

smilies working fine...

Confused indeed. Safari & OmniWeb = no smilies, FireFox & Camino = Smilies
I would want to know what that damn security update did to the browsers ability to perform corectly

abhishekit · May 21, 2004

checkin the smilies..
it works

did i misread the earlier posts about not able to print smilies?

Sparky's · May 21, 2004

You didn't misread, at the time the post were made I could not select any smilies

but then after launching and quiting out of several applications and coming back to Safari....

all is well.... go figure..

cb911 · May 21, 2004

oh creepy. that's an update released like 3 days before it's date. i'm freaked out about it now.

dopefiend, what are you talking about your trojan?

should i be worried?

blue&whiteman · May 22, 2004

um.. this update is strait from apple over apples os..

if you have paranoia over this then you should seek therapy

also, someone would have to hack apples server directly for us all to see it. the update is posted on trusted sites also like Accelerate Your Mac

weird because I had a problem with smiles not working right...and I haven't updated with security.

NOw they work though. I think I had problems with them last night sometime.
