Safari security



Microsoft warns Windows users off Safari because it can be exploited by
toerags to run downloaded excutables on the Windows desktop.

Apple says we think you should fix the Windows vulnerability, but we'll
think about fixing our bit sometime.

Microsoft admits there is a little bit of a problem with IE, Windows XP
and Vista and it's really mean of people to take advantage of it.

Simple fix, change the download location to something other than
Desktop.
