  Pros

  Fixes some security leaks.

  Cons

  Breaks Rosetta (PPC programs), including printing and open dialog boxes. A found has been created here.... http://www.educate-it.org/content.php?130-Rosetta-Issue-after-Security-Update-2012-001 Just download the zip file. It's a quick fix by some Nebraska High School students. Hopefully Apple will soon addresse the problem.

  Summary

  Downloaded as usual. Tried to install on Mac Pro Intel running 10.6.6 Refused to allow any partition to be affected, so I presumed that the material had been already included in the upgrade to 10.6.6<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Feb 7, 2012<p/>Downloaded under 10.7.3 and installed Security Update 2012-001 after changing to a partition using 10.6.8 as the operating system. Went smoothly and all seems well. I keep this partition for a program that does not run under 10.7.3 or any Lion system. Apologies to Jim Lerch since I complained without noticing the system requirements.
