Since I installed Panther Software Update keeps asking me to install the Powermac SuperDrive Update. When I select it, after downloading it says I don't need it but sure enough, the next time Software Update runs it tries to install it.

Any clues as to how I can stop this? Anyone else had this happen???

Thanks in advance,

Jordan,
You're not alone. I have the same exact issue, and I have used the "Ignore Update" option. It's still annoying, however.
Peace. Love. MacOSX.
