What other user say about this:


ilgaz: Another proof that we (Apple users) need some actual media instead of professional fanboys or straight Apple/end user haters. Something in middle of both.
I was afraid of what I heard for Windows version from “Apple/end user haters” and refused to install it (first 3.x) to my ordinary machine. I was angry at myself for being paranoid and noob for thinking a windows exploit can work on a complete alien/unique OS (X) but see what happened.
Who told these issues before Apple actually released non exploitable (?) Safari 3? None. They are busy posting some digg friendly stories about iPhone with same content over and over.
Apple needs some actual media which DOES what other professional publications does.

IronChef: Doesn’t link correctly to torrent files :-(

CeeJayDK: It no longer crashes as soon as you use bookmarks.
But it doesn’t have autoscroll and I use that a lot. Also doesn’t have an ad-filter.
And while some people may like the new fontsmoothing , I don’t, and I can’t why it should be so hard to have an option to switch it off , rather than the light , medium and heavy settings it’s limited to.

Sethwm2: I hope that it is more secure that before. I actually want hackers and various people to try to find bugs because that is only going to make Safari better. The people who hate Apple and are attempting to find flaws is actually helping Apple.. SO!! Go ahead the Safari team will be hard at work…

xtraa: I am missing Saft and Inquisitor on Safari for Windows. Everything else is just as it should be.

vincentpun: I am glad that the no text problem is fixed.
It is faster.
However, I can’t log-in to Digg using Safari.

kaspertech: Yet I still dislikes it cluttering my RAM…

zongamin: so how do you know if it runs faster?

distortseven: The type looks gorgeous and everything “feels” so much more faster. Something about safari that makes everything look so fluid and clean.

nazimjamil: this freakin release, somehow, i dont know how, keeps causing MSN messenger go crash all the freaking time, a couple of users have this problem.

SikHeadTom: Great Work!

But for the moment i’m sticking with FireFox

lalanis: Nice update, but how about an ”add new tab” button in the toolbar?

Webmoney: Wow… I do really like this browser. -)

clpo13: Bah, I’ll take Firefox over Safari any day. Considering the problems I had with the original version of Safari for Windows (probably fixed now), I’m staying far away from it and any non-essential Apple programs for Windows. iTunes is the exception (for syncing with my iPod), but I don’t like it much, either. I can’t be the only one who finds the brushed metal (or gray or whatever) look of Safari and iTunes kind of ugly.

dungpt: i really don’t like safari on windows, it’s not so smooth same with Mac OS.
Firefox is the best.
