CoRD 0.5 takes advantage of many of the new technologies only available in OS X 10.5 (Leopard) or better. Unfortunately this means we had to cut support for 10.4 completely, leaving 0.4.3 as the sole option for 10.4 users.

HOWEVER, there is an issue with updating that we cannot work around; 0.4.3 uses an old version of the update framework (Sparkle) that doesn't support any methods for defining minimum system versions. As such, 0.4.3 will repeatedly try to update itself to 0.5. To alleviate this issue for the remaining Tiger users, we recommend that you disable automatic updates until you can move to Leopard.

You can disable updates by running this command from the Terminal after closing CoRD:

defaults write net.sf.cord SUAutomaticallyUpdate -bool NO

Be sure CoRD isn't running when you run this or it may override the setting when you close it. This is an exposed Preference item in 0.5, so when you DO finally upgrade you can turn this back on from the GUI within CoRD.

If you have already updated and now CoRD will no longer start, you can go here and get 0.4.3 back, then follow the instructions above to turn off software updates.
