Mac users are growing concerned about a new feature within Mac OS X 10.4.7 that contacts servers at Apple HQ on a regular basis.
The new Dashboard process is called dashboardadvisory. According to Apple's release notes for 10.4.7, the application contacts Apple's servers for just one purpose--to ensure a user's Dashboard widgets are up-to-date.
"You can now verify whether or not a Dashboard widget you downloaded is the same version as a widget featured on [www.apple.com] before installing it," Apple's release notes say, in effect preventing users accidentally downloading less secure widgets.

Personally I don't care but I know others do and was wondering what everybody's thinks about this?
Should they have an option to be able to turn this off or does this guy care too much?
