It was released and pulled on the same day! They found a glitch and are fixing before re-releasing.

Oh really?

I downloaded it.. seemed to work okay, although i must admit, i switched it on, downloaded it, installed it then switched it off again.

Was it anything serious or are we none the wiser?

Problem during installation apparently so if installed and running your in the clear.

Personally i think it's a hoax started by Thai on a blog somewhere :mrgreen:

Problems with machines freezing up - not only during install from what I've read, although most likely immediately after - not limited to one type, happens to 40s/60s/Euro & US - removing/formatting disk cures it apparently, not great if you have saves though! Sounds like you guys are in the clear fortunately, can understand why they pulled it so fast though!
