Still slower then my IE7... Only thing that's been faster is IE6 and Opera, with Opera being the fastest of them all...

IE6/7 is rock solid for me, and IE7 only slightly more bulky then IE6.. There is nothing less bulky then IE..

All I did was download, install and click the Safari icon, that's the fisrt thing that came up. As soon as I clicked one button it became unresponsive and crashed.. No text displayed anywhere on the browser and I could not type in any text boxes except the search box, and that text showed up about 1" below the text box. I somehow clicked a Yahoo link, which loaded find and looked just like yahoo on IE/Opera, untill clicking a link crashed Safari. Two thumbs down for this one, maybe the final will be better.

IE7 Netscape free browsers use FF/IE as will come with anti: adware, spyware, other things too. useful tools for security besides other plugins for it too.

'Day One' for Safari for Windows Becomes Zero-Day Nightmare
http://www.betanews.com/article/Day_...are/1181661606
It took security engineers perhaps less than two hours yesterday to introduce Apple's surprise entry in the field of Windows browsers to the big, cruel world of exploits and vulnerabilities, following its introduction yesterday morning at WWDC. As a result, much of the clout Safari had received as the secure browsing alternative to Internet Explorer and Firefox -- as long as it was on a Macintosh -- was burned off like fire to a flash fuse. Errata Security engineer David Maynor had a report posted on the first vulnerability he found by 1:48 pm, complete with screenshots of the pre-crash letdown dialog produced by his fuzzing tool. As he admitted, it wasn't a difficult crash to find, posting a screen shot of the memory dump revealing both a stack corruption and an access violation, and then giving credit to Thor Larholm for posting a complete report on the calamity not an hour later. "I downloaded and installed Safari for Windows 2 hours ago, when I started writing this," Larholm wrote, "and I now have a fully functional command execution vulnerability, triggered without user interaction simply by visiting a web site." Both Larholm and Maynor have made it clear their intentions are simply to discover vulnerabilities and warn the vendor and the public as to their implications, not to profit from their exploitation...because, quite frankly, the exploits don't appear to be that difficult. |

tbh i'd need a really good reason to move from FF.
same as moving from IE, i thought IE was ok until i got infested with spyware daily. |

My IE7 kept crashing...
plus I like the ability to use themes for FF. Only time I use IE is to either check a site out for IE compatibility, or when absolutely needed (updates for example) |
