/me goes to have a gander at Apple's Download page...
Nope, don't seem to be able to grab this one right now. Here's hoping it's not been pulled due to being buggy... <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" />
<strong>Hmmm ... after the post-update reboot, Software Update automagically restarted itself and shows I still need the update. Strange.

Same here. I've installed it twice now and SU still keeps asking if I want to install it.

I'm subscribed to the Apple KBase Mailing List, so I found out rather quick.

3 hours difference...
so, for those who asked, no, I haven't got any problems. SU hasn't asked me again.
So far so good.
Even 10.2.4 runs well.
Lucky me.
