Hi Dave,
----------------------------------------When you went on a Safari, you must have discovered that "Private Browsing" button so you can stay on the board without anyone knowing you were there, afterwards :O

I heard it had some major, major security bugs. Quite a few of them.
Good luck! |

Opening the download window greys out the autofill button - just when you might think you need it.

"I heard it had some major, major security bugs. Quite a few of them."
----------------------------------------D Never as many as IE LOL Mind you I'm accessing my PC through Logmein from the other end of the country and it's gone offline !! I suspect a MS Tuesday Patch Schedule is more likely to blame though. I think I need to get my remote techs to hit the big power button  |

The first bugs have already been found in the beta version of Safari for Windows, a port of Apple's web browser, less than a day after its release.
----------------------------------------Apple CEO Steve Jobs announced the beta release during his keynote speech at the company's Worldwide Developers Conference on Monday. David Maynor - one of the researchers who controversially claimed to have found security flaws in Apple's AirPort wi-fi driver last year - wrote in his blog on Monday that "an afternoon of idle fuzzing [testing software by throwing random data at its inputs]" by him and other testers had thrown up six denial-of-service (DoS) bugs and two remote execution flaws.
