Mac OS X v10.6: About incompatible software

Summary
Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard is designed to protect your Mac from  
certain incompatible software that can quit unexpectedly or cause  
other issues in Mac OS X v10.6.

When you install Snow Leopard or migrate to Snow Leopard, known- 
incompatible software is moved to a folder named Incompatible Software  
on your hard drive.

Snow Leopard also prevents known-incompatible software from opening.   
If you see an "Incompatible software" message, contact the software's  
vendor or visit their website for a later, compatible version.

Products Affected
Mac OS X 10.6
Software restricted during installation and migration

During installation, Snow Leopard moves known-incompatible software to  
a folder named Incompatible Software at the root level of the hard  
drive. If you see this folder on your Mac, use the table below to  
check with the software vendor to see if any Mac OS X v10.6 Snow  
Leopard-compatible updates are available.
