I’ve been using Apple Safari browser for some time now because I don’t get any of the menacing ads that seem to plague IE and Firefox.
How do you rate this browser since I never hear anything about it?
ANSWER
You are correct, I don’t talk about Safari (Apple’s web browsing program that just became available on Windows within the last year) much on the Windows platform. Probably because the browser market is so crowded with Firefox, Chrome, Opera, and of course Internet Explorer. Overall, I think the Safari browser does a great job and is fast and stable. Safari shares its best attribute with Opera, Firefox, and Chrome…they aren’t Internet Explorer.
I support the use of any browser other than Internet Explorer because of the increased safety. Hackers do their most vicious work using Internet Explorer, and simply not using it automatically makes your computer a safer place.

Ha, ha, thanks for your note. I see you didn’t have the cajones to leave your name with your comment. Read my answer more carefully before jumping to conclusions, however.

I’m someone else, and I’m TRYING to read your scribbling. I think you are lucky to have received such a polite response from Rick. Maybe when you get out of the second grade, people will respect your opinions (sorry to insult most second graders!!).
This nut case must be jealous of you Rick.
He must also be left handed because he can’t find the SHIFT key for caps.

Sorry. I didn’t mean to insult leftys.
