Apple just released their new update of Snow Leopard. It fixes a rather large problem that has to due with data loss related to guest accounts. it also corrects a problem with multi-touch expose features, one i have currently been upset about, and has been one of my main gripes since upgrading from 10.5.x Leopard.

and here’s the nitty gritty:

The 10.6.2 Update is recommended for all users running Mac OS X Snow Leopard and includes general operating system fixes that enhance the stability, compatibility, and security of your Mac, including fixes for:

- an issue that might cause your system to logout unexpectedly
- a graphics distortion in Safari Top Sites
- Spotlight search results not showing Exchange contacts
- a problem that prevented authenticating as an administrative user
- issues when using NTFS and WebDAV file servers
- the reliability of menu extras
- an issue with the 4-finger swipe gesture
- an issue that causes Mail to quit unexpectedly when setting up an Exchange server
- Address Book becoming unresponsive when editing
- a problem adding images to contacts in Address Book
