Revised Security Update 004 and QT CanSecWest fix released
Those of you in the habit of waiting a week or two to apply Apple's updates may now begin to snicker in satisfaction. A revised version of the 004 security update was released this afternoon, correcting two issues (Airport problems in 10.3.9 and FTP settings on Mac OS X Server). We linked to MacFixit's troubleshooting report for the original update late last week.Also released: QuickTime 7.1.6, which applies to both Mac OS X and Windows deployments and closes the Java exploit used to win the CanSecWest $10,000 challenge. As expected, researcher Dino Dai Zovi and the Zero Day Initiative/Tipping Point are credited with the discovery of the vulnerability. The ZDI writeup notes that the time from discovery to patch was eight days... not all that bad.

Someone please tell me if if this isn't a problem just something thats not possible. I have an iMac connected wirelessly to a new Linksys G router. I want to stream movies downstairs to my macbook connected to the tv and potentially an Apple TV (wirelessly as well). I thought this would work, but 80 % of the time it doesn't. Is something wrong or is this just not possible all wireless.
now I'm hesitant to apply this update, because I went ahead with the other one and it completely messed up my airport and proxy settings. Anyone else have those problems?
