StarCraft Patch 1.16 Released
Today's update, now available at FileShack, comes in two flavors: one for those with plain old StarCraft and one for those with the Brood War expansion.
Patch 1.16 brings some CPU optimizations--the game "now only uses as much CPU as it needs to run smoothly." In-game chat but not whispers is now saved in the replays. There's also a few bug fixes and the removal of numerous exploits. Sorry Terrans, no more drop-anywhere nukes. Don't worry, the Zerg lost some exploits too.
- Feature Changes
- In-game chat is now saved in replays. Note: whispers are not saved.
- Hitting the Escape key while in the chat room will clear your typed text.
- "/reply" (or just "/r") will send a whisper to person who most recently whispered you.
- Fixed localization issues with "from" and "to" in whispers.
- Starcraft now only uses as much CPU as it needs to run smoothly.
- Fixed an exploit which allowed Zerg players to gain minerals through mutations.
- Fixed an exploit which allowed Zerg players to recycle an upgrading building.
- Fixed an exploit which allowed Zerg players to extend their creep with a drone.
- Fixed an exploit which allowed Zerg players to move Drones over impassable terrain.
- Fixed an exploit which allowed Terran players to drop a nuke anywhere on the map.
- Fixed an exploit which allowed players to pause the game while in the pre-game lobby.

After 10 years... :D
But, that bug was an icon of SC to be honest :(
