Thanks Klaus
Heres more info if anyone wants it.
One concern is that there was an incorrect version of the update posted on Adobes site. It was only up for a week (and I think before the update was officaially announced). The correct version is there now.

Significant fixes in the 6.0.1 Macintosh release include the following:
- The painting tool brush picker has new usability improvements:
* Enter brings up and dismisses the preset picker at the current mouse location.
* Double-clicking a brush in the picker selects the brush and dismisses the picker.
* The current brush is always highlighted in the preset picker.
* The First Brush and Last Brush keyboard shortcuts (> and <) work regardless of whether the current brush exactly
matches a preset brush.
- Image clipping paths in EPS and TIFF files saved from Photoshop 6.0.1 have been modified so that other software, such as QuarkXPress, is able to read them.
- ImageReady is able to save and preview animations under constrained memory conditions.
- There is no slow-down of performance when files in the Open Recent list are unavailable.
- Batch file naming works correctly.
- Export Paths to Illustrator retains path scaling.
- Using certain tools (such as move, marquee, or lasso) after using the Open, Save, and Print commands no longer generates a Program Error dialog.
- Selecting a single color in Color Range now works correctly.
- Online help is accessible for more Web browser configurations.
- New Japanese character map (CMap) files are included to resolve conflicts with ImageStyler 1.0 and PageMaker 6.5.2 Plus.
- Memory usage is better on all Windows operating systems; the network should no longer become unavailable when Photoshop is running.
- Showing and hiding edges for a selection no longer requires pressing Ctrl+H twice.

I was wondering about that stupid "pressing Ctrl+H 2x to hide the selection"! aaagh! that was driving me nutz!
I was beginning to think it was just me and something i was doing differently or something... differently. Doh! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]
Thanks for the upDated news.
Mark...
Funny, I did not figure out that ctrl/command H thing was even a bug. Since I rarely look at the keyboard, I just chalked it up to poor keyboard skills. This is one of the weirdest bugs Ive seen.

I didn't realise it was photoshop doing it either, I thought that I would have to give up these all night photoshop sessions. Because I use a pen I just thought my hand brain co-ordination was Kaput
