Now that is helpful. Thanks a lot. Have a old iMac G3 I wondered about. I asked because I simply didn't encounter the problems I kept hearing people complain about with 3.9. The iMac G5 is just a few months old with no or little third party apps. 3.9 fast as lightening, loading pages, mailing, whatever. Solved the fan noise too. Even my wife figured out the Java problem and downloaded the security patch from Apple after reading about it. So I wondered what the issue could be? At least I didn't encounter problems with this machine.
I realize though there can be many variables. But at least we have a start knowing something about the machine someone is using when a problem is encountered.
I would find these comments more helpful if you would simply say what you use with Tiger. Like G4 or G5? Seems obvious to me so why don't you do so?
For example, I have no issue with Panther and my g5iMac. Thanks, Randy
