Hi Steve,

I had problems with Safari which is why I have so many browsers. It  
wouldn't let me make a purchase on Popflash. Certain required buttons  
were missing altogether. I talked to Tony about it and he put a  
notice on his site not to use Safari. It was finally fixed in the  
last system upgrade but it's not right in other areas. Now it  
unexpectedly drops sites. Firefox seems to be the most stable.
