Apple Quietly Releases Safari 3.2

Posted by kdawson on from the new-shinies dept.

99BottlesOfBeerInMyF writes "Yesterday Apple quietly slipped out an update to their Safari Web browser to version 3.2. The notable feature is that it finally adds anti-phishing technology, an area where Safari has lagged behind competitors. Aside from that, it provides some security fixes, improved JavaScript performance, and a slightly newer version of Webkit, pulling their Acid3 score up to 77." Apple forums across the Net are reporting frequent crashes in Safari 3.2, some possibly caused by 3rd-party add-ons, others perhaps related to the anti-phishing feature.

    This is a feature, and works as promised. Such as the feature of Safari using 100% CPU power when its sitting idle viewing google.com or slashdot.com. Mr. Jobs wants us to be more simple.

    Please post your windows-loving anti-mac rhetoric somewhere else.
