I downloaded several updates last evening, 10.5.2, Quicktime, Security Update etc. All went well until I tred to load the security update (2008-1, I believe -- not at the mac right now). I got an error message that it could not be loaded on this computer. Anyone else seen this? Should I be worried? What to do?

Try downloading the 10.5.2 combo updater, reinstall it, and repair permissions. Then try Software Update to see about the security update.

Thanks! I had run the combo updater in the first place. Someone on another forum posted the same question, and the answer was that the security update for Leopare was included in the 10.5.2 update. So, I'm good to go either way. Thanks!
