On my PB 667Mhz/1Gb ram/16MB video/Infrared, I noticed the same thing 
but only when accessing https:// sites with Safari. I used the Safari 
bug-button to respond, but no fix (yet?).

I doubt that this is a hardware issue, as it only happens with Safari 
and Software Update. I suspect the Software Update application to use 
the same https:// download / connection framework as Safari. IE, 
Omniweb and Lynx[1] are fine.

want to go there ;-)
