I can only imagine ... all my Qube3 installations are behind 56k modems!
I'll have to download it;
http://updates.cobalt.com/updates/Qube3/Qube3-All-Security-2.0.1-8061.pkg
to my laptop and load manually at each site.
BlueLinQ is a great idea, but I need more info about what the update
contains before I decide whether to install it.

This is simply not good enough. I need to know what vulnerabilities are
resolved so I can decide if installation is really necessary.
