First of all, type a little more coherently please...

Secondly, there\'s two ways to get past the black updater crap:

1)  stick a \"-auto\" switch on the updater\'s command
     (make it\'s shortcut \" -auto\"; note the space after the name)
2)  click the \"update\" link in spite of the draw errors  :P
     (this seems to work just fine)

Supposedly, windows is currently updatable but other OS\'s are not yet ready.

It\'s about 80 MB, so it may take a while on non-broadband connections.

I can confirm on the other OS\'s not being ready...
(Linux here)
Oh, and there also seems to be a bug with char creation...
I haven\'t experianced this, seeing as I have not made any recently, but be aware.

My update just finished, and my updater is now back to normal.

I\'m off to check PS now...

just outta curiosity-after you set up the -auto does the updater still look funky but work?

The \"-auto\" switch runs it in an automatically updating text-based mode instead.  (don\'t need a button to start the update, so no graphics to glitch...)
