Don't tell me, I never said it was a fix.
However It does seem to be a useful workaround for many people, especially for people who like to view their texts in threaded mode.

Some slimy git on the Sprint BBS is pretending to be ziggy471 that creating the original workaround for this Wm bug and released it here:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=104248
as "Ziggy 2016 fix.cab"
The main thread in the sprint BBS is this:
http://community.sprint.com/baw/thread/25879
The impersonator is calling himself Ziggy on the Sprint BBS.
He has changed the file name to "Ziggy 2016 fix final.cab" and is spouting some rubbish about the final version having been fixed so that the problem will not happen again on various other dates in 2010 and 2011!!
HE IS ASKING FOR DONATIONS!!
The real ziggy471 went on the BBS and pointed out that it was his work and he did not want donations but the idiots at Sprint appear to believe the impersonator and have locked the thread and deleted all the messages from the real ziggy471.
I am disgusted.

As an EE I'd like to say that yes I am smart enough to know what was meant when people WRONGLY referred to 2016 as 2K16.

When I install Quicktime on a PC I just uninstall the Apple software updater. That seems to be all it takes to stop other Apple software being offered. It don't think it stops updates to Quicktime being offered when Quicktime is used.

The Quicktime installer installs Apple software updater silently without any warning even if you uncheck the box that says check for new software when you run the Quicktime installer.

But "Their accounting system screwed up". so presumably she HAD paid.
