It is *the* answer. It is unlikely that we'll ever have to put out a security fix for the 1.1 series, but the possibility is not zero. If we do, anyone who has the updater turned off will miss the fix (unless they still read VersionTracker or something, which is unlikely). We won't include the new updater (Sparkle) because it would make the security fix take much longer. Thus, even those who update will still be in the same situation. But the chance of a security fix for the 1.1 series is *very very small*. So my suggestion is: Turn off the updater and don't worry about it. If you insist on worrying about it, add a recurring event to your iCal calendar to remind you to check our website (and the feasibility of upgrading your OS) once a month. > That burning sensation is the collective feeling you're getting from > all the people that use Growl on Tiger on dial-up or other services > where they pay dearly for their bandwidth. To all such users: Turn off the updater. It's not worth it for you. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Growl Discuss" group.
