Gallery Sabotage

Is it a coincidence that the on same day Gallery releases a security fix, mine curls up and dies? It suddenly swelled up to fill all my available space and then refused to be accessed. Could this be someone quickly taking advantage of the publicised security flaw or gallery 'subtly' reminding me to upgrade? More likely I broke it somehow.... Anyway it's annoying - expect there to be a lack of photos for the imminent future.
