And cleans any you have from <DigiNotar>, also.You can see if you have any certificates from this organization by opening Keychain Access, selecting "Certificates" in the 'Category' list and then selecting anything in the 'Keychains' list. I found one. Installed the update and it's now gone. Poof! salute.gif

The "certs" weren't actually 'evil' but their site was hacked and their credibility was destroyed by that. I think what Apple did was to simply block any and all acceptance of their "certs."

Some one just brought to my attention that these updates don't apply to Leopard and earlier versions of OS X. Thinking.gif No support for PPC machines? And many are still using AppleWorks! eek2.gif
