[G4] Jaguar - many apps fail to start - unexpected quit

[CJ Scaminaci]

Hey,

Wow my DSL did the 85MB in about a half hour but after the updates are 
used Software Update deletes them. Usually what I do is when you select 
an important update I select download to desktop in the menu which 
allows you to save it for a later date. Ya I always run permissions fix 
after installations because there is a bug in MacOSX that slows down 
internet traffic on the machine unless permissions are done. I don't 
exactly know how but if I don't fix them my internet becomes horribly 
slow and unusable. Plus it stops those annoying pop ups that always ask 
"So and so wants to decrypt this or that on the keychain ___" and if 
you want to allow it. Those bug me. Plus if you repair your MacOSX 
volume under Mac OS9 with TechTool it screws up permissions and makes 
the computer slow. Maybe it's just a problem I have but it can't hurt 
right?
