Had you already provided your password to unlock the disk image when
the message popped up? It sounds like the disk image mounter was
running a checksum verification check before allowing it to mount.
Thanks,

I upgraded my MacBook Pro to 10.4.9 last night... aside from Remote

iChat crashing... something strange happened that I have a concern
with...
I typically carry around FireLite drives with me to store my
sensitive data on... I use encrypted drive image files to do this
so that the information is unusable should the drive get lost or
stolen... I do this instead of using FileVault as FileVault slows
down the performance of Parallels or other large file access
systems considerably....
My concern: This morning while mounting my secure drive image
10.4.9 popped up a window and stated, "Verifying Drive Image"...
this took about 5-6 seconds....
What did 10.4.9 just do? With the way George W is being, was Apple
pressured into some type of key backdoor? Did 10.4.9 install a
secondary key or something that lets people into my image that I
did not authorize?
Out of all my years with OS X, I have NEVER seen this message pop
up on an encrypted R/W drive image, and now all the sudden it pops
up... what exactly did it do?
This concerns me...
