Look, I agree that you need to be careful about Cobalt patches, BUT you are
running an ever greater security risk by not installing them!!!  They often
fix known security exploits and other problems.  The best thing to do is
subscribe to cobalt-users and cobalt-developers and read them!!  People on
these lists will talk about weather a patch causes problems , things to look
out for and so on.  I always wait about a week after a patch is released
before I install it.  That way I am being prudent but still secure.

Just my 2cents.
