which is the same as for v1.0 of the Update released last Tuesday. Apple states this update v1.1 "...fixes the following issues in Security Update 2004-09-07 v1.0:

  • lukemftpd: Corrects the path to the configuration directory
  • Safari (10.3.5 only): The Safari version number is changed to provide compatibility with web sites that use an old version-checking mechanism

It fixes the problems that some people had with some FTP operations and rendering of some web sites.

We downloaded and installed it with no problem. It fixed the Safari rendering problem we had with the Best Buy web site.
