The update "Security Update 2006-003 (Intel)" can't be installed.

Sorry, an unexpected error occured.

This is being displayed on my brand new MacBook Pro 15" (18th week). What gives?

Saft no longer works with Safari after the update. Be warned.

I can't believe I have to say this again, but DON'T INSTALL THIS UPDATE yet. I just installed it (along with Front Row and Quicktime) on my Macbook and now it hangs while booting.

Update:

There's a good change this will freeze your mac if you have Adobe VersionCue installed. I'd advise not installing it at all right now, but if you already have and you get a hang on startup, do this: Boot in Safe Mode (hold down shift during boot); go to Macintosh HD/library/startupitems and delete versioncue. Reboot. And curse Apple for having inept software engineers.

I confirm that the update hangs a MacBook Pro. I'll check the Version Cue tip, thanks :)

Removing VersionCue works on my MacBook Pro. I also had to reinstall another startup item -- DoubleCommand. Waiting for Apple to fix this...

My 20" intel imac keeps frezzing i will try the adobe stuff when i get home. Thanks a lot.

I had to use target-disk-mode to get into my system and delete the Version Cue startup files. Darn thing wouldn't even boot into safe-mode.

Kudos to Coachzed. My MacBook Pro is back to booting normally.

Shame on Apple for not testing with this. I think we'll see an update soon.

So unless you did a backup right before installing Security Updates (which I plan to do now in the future), how does one remove a Security Update that is already installed? or is there a way?

i have a problem with unrarx... the freeze problem was solved with the removal of version cue, but everytime I use unrarx my 20" imac core duo freezes.

The freezes not only happen with Adobe stuff or startup items. Other applications may trigger the freezes as well. When my system freezes, the mouse still moves, the windowing system is dead, the system reacts to ping still (so the kernel is still working) but I cannot log in with a remote shell (ssh) so at least some services are down.

Let's hope Apple soon fixes this.
