.... It should also be mentioned that Apple's 'advice' doesn't address any of the other problems experienced by 10.5.6 updaters, such as dropped network connections, audio 'pops' upon restart, Mail.app refusing to quit or failing to connect, problems with Apache and Contribute, and iSights going blind.
