It has always caused problems on my system.  Particularly so, with my initial install of Fedora 12:  Update wouldn't work until I disabled it.  Even the "Permissive" setting caused problems.  

Since my system is a stand-alone one behind two firewalls, not locally networked to any others, doesn't run any public accessable servers, etc., and I'm the only user, I don't really need selinux.  I would like to uninstall it.  It just takes up space on the hard drive and consumes RAM, but it is a dependency for most everything.  So, it's set to load disabled.
