.3 update has jammed up my MBP, need advice!

I finally did the update today. I started the update and jumped in the shower. When I got out, nothing was up but software update was on. It still says it's 10.5.2. When I tried to shut it down, it wouldn't. When I tried to shut the computer down, it said the updater canceled the shutdown.

It's been sitting in the same state for hours. I'm afraid that if I force it down something bad will happen, but it looks like my only option. Anyone else had this problem with the update?

The only issue I had was on my Intel Mini. It updated, did the double restart and I was using it under 10.5.3. I went to shut down and it sat there at the Gray screen. I held the power button, restarted and it's been fine since. It sounds like for some reason yours has never updated.

If you are still up and running and on the net. Try down loading and install Mac OS X 10.5.3 Combo Update.

Since i did the update all my programs seem to take for ever to load now.

Is this something that just happens the first time or do i have a problem?

Let it run a bit more then do a restart. See if things don't pick back up in speed.

Had to force a shut down because itunes just would not load and nothing else would respond.

If it continues can i revert back to 10.5.2

Mine also did a double restart.... However, I have not tried restarted manually since the update...

I downloaded the combo update, but still could get things moving, so I ended up having to force quite updater and then I was able to restart. After that it finally started the update.
