* This blocks new installations of anything fakesigned, that is, Homebrew Channel (both new installs and updates), wads (legal and illegal), Starfall, cIOS, anything that installs IOSes secretly like AnyRegion Changer or AnyTitle Deleter, xyzzy and DVDX (used for apps which have DVD support). This list is not exhaustive, but please add to it if you think of anything else.
This also blocks access to /dev/flash. This means raw nand dumping utilities no longer work.
If something is already installed then it isn’t affected, like Homebrew Channel, etc.
The homebrew developers are already planning how to work around this update.
You currently need this update to access the Wii Shop Channel.
If you already have the Homebrew Channel and DVDX, and aren’t planning to install anything big that will affect your Wii, then you are most likely unaffected. Normal everyday apps such as Homebrew Browser are completely unaffected as long as you already have the Homebrew Channel.
It updates all IOSes with the fakesigning bug, and adds IOS51.

I’m not updating but how do I stop my Wii from flashing blue?
[/QUOTE]
Flashing blue? You mean that blue light when you get a message from the Wii? I don’t believe there is anyone to be rid of it unless you disabled the Wiiconnect24 or w/e service. You just need to check your messages, as for standby mode you could always just turn off the Wii (hold down the power button on the Wii untill it turns red).
In System Settings, you can dim the light but thats about it. So, start digging around for that new message you may even need to go back a few days to fine the stupid message.
I think I have an idea. Your Wii’s slot will illuminate blue to let you know that you have a new message, right? In your Wii options, you can choose to disable the slot illumination while still using WiiConnect 24.
