Sometimes updates do break things, but when this happens we usually see a
flood of problem reports. I have not seen that. Typically running the
update is the proximate cause, but not the real cause. Something was
askew just waiting for a nudge to become a problem.
Paula - Did you download the update, then install it? Or did you do the
automatic update online?
Sometimes there are glitches in transmission of the installer files that
wouldn't happen if you download and install locally. I always download
updates first, then install locally.
