I have this problem, but another keyboard issue is where the keyboard locks up and is just not responsive to any key press for about 1 minute. I also have this issue and have done since I upgraded to Leopard, however, it seems to have got much worse since I installed this Security Update - really hope Apple release a fix soon!
Got a tip for us?

Finally did the 10.4.11 and Security update this morning. Made a backup (just in case) but it wasn't needed. Everything ran flawless.
My system is pretty clean now (I did an new install when I upgrade my hard drive to a 250gb 2 months ago) as I used to have occasional issues when updating.

Works fine!
Both the QT and the Security update work as advertised. Installed flawlessly on my Powerbook G4 and on my MacBook. I really dont see how people get faulty upgrades....

It's not so much faulty upgrades, as it is the updates don't install on systems with various changes, quirky issues, 3rd party add-ons and system instabilities.

I got the same system, installed the updates and everything is working gravy over here as well
Kinda broke Safari under Leopard.
I use a site which actually needs popup windows to function. The windows don't pop up under Safari any more. They're not disabled under Safari so far's I can tell.
I had to switch to Firefox.

I used to think that., until yesterday.. I installed the update and now internet access has become extremely slow to the point of being unusable. However I can browse perfectly fast using parallels ( I am posting from Firefox on xp). I run no extensions of 3 party hacks or anything different. It's annoys me that I have no way to uninstall this crappy update and go back to an earlier state. Now I have to reinstall.
I was experiencing system slowness after installing this upgrade.
I could hear the hard drive being accessed so I checked Activity Monitor. I discovered that a family of processes named 'mds' were consuming a lot of the CPU. It turns out that these processes are Spotlight re-indexing the hard drive.
So I gave it time to finish and once it did, performance was back to normal.

Safari and mail have definatley become unstable with this update. The previous security update about a month ago has taken me back to having the airport connection problem I had with 10.4.9 where the connection comes and goes all the time on battery. Now I'm stuck with safari and mail crashing all the time.
I wish they'd get these things right for once.

Can someone help?

Does anyone know how to reset the switch that makes Leopard use iTunes as the default internet music app?
After this update whenever I click on a link that plays music, iTunes ever so slowly cranks up and plays the clip instead the of app that the browser was designed to use.
I'm trying to listen to Amazon.com mp3 clips, which worked fine before the update.
I went to the iTunes preferences but it only allows you to set iTunes as the default internet music app. It won't let you un-select or reset. Weird...
Of course I checked Apple's help system and their discussion boards - no luck.

similar thing happened to me. I didn't restart straight away and hen when I did get around to it, it froze on my background with no icons or menu and that little round loading thing going. I hard reset and then got stuck in a loop of login screen to setup assistant to login screen. When I realised it it was a loop, I hit the shutdown button on the login screen and it actually installed the update while shutting down. It seemed to reboot normally but since then things like finder and spotlight keep hanging (and eventually requiring a hard shutdown) and itunes seems really slow. :-/
And before anyone tells me I have 3rd party hacks installed, it's mostly only Apple apps that are having problems. Firefox and Adium (my two most used non-Apple apps) are fine. Oh and Word keeps hanging, but then Word's always been a bit crap in Leopard.
EDIT: I reintalled Leopard and turns out Time Machine had stopped doing backups since the security patch. Nothing too major but a little annoying.
This is the one problem I had on my SR MBP with Leopard. The update seems to mainly fix it. I get maybe 1/20 as frequently as before.
Fetch Art reappeared
Strange thing. My powerbook hd crashed, bought a new macmini. Transferred vital files, incl. itunes files to macmini from external backup hd. Everything fine, especially annoying fetchart logo disappeared, as it was brand new itunes. Now, after security update the fetch art logo reappeared on itunes!! Deleted it from itunes/scripts after some google browsing, so it is now ok. I am just wondering how the hell did it come back there and are there any other similar cases coming?

safari crashes since update
my safari crashes every time I uses certain web forms. It seems to be sites that open a new window after you've logged in. I removed the "block pop up windows" preference and restarted but it still does the same thing. any ideas?

Hold on sugar buns
2007-009 1.1 has been released; it'll fix those problems you experienced.
It was listed on Versiontracker, checked, it appears that what was offered initially was 1.0, this is 1.1 which most likely fixes those issues people find.
I've outlined it on my blog.
