14 DAY TRIAL // Following the complaints made for recently-released Safari for Windows, Apple decided that it was the time to publish an updated version of the browser that fixes the security holes discovered in the application. Although the browser was introduced a few days ago, he was quickly brought in the spotlights as it is described as the best competitor for Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Internet Explorer, the main leader of the browsers category.
"The security improvements in Safari Beta 3.0.1 include correction for a "command injection vulnerability," corrected with additional processing and validation of URLs that could otherwise lead to an unexpected termination of the browser; an out-of-bounds memory read issue; and a race condition that can allow cross-site scripting using a JavaSscript exploit," PC World reported.
The recent updates are only compatible with the Windows version of the application so the Mac edition remains unchanged. As you probably know, Apple's Safari for Windows is compatible with the XP and Vista versions of the Microsoft operating system and is currently available only as a beta release as the Cupertino-based company wants to test the market before the final product becomes available to all the users.
At this time, the battle for the best browser on the Internet involves two of the popular solutions, Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, the two applications that own a considerable number of fans all over the world. Obviously, it is hard to challenge them but, as far I can see, a lot of users are trying to turn to Safari for Windows as the performance of the browser on the Mac platform is well known. Moreover, the parent company Apple is describing the program as the best browser ever created with "blazing performance, elegant performance, easy bookmarks, SnapBack, bult-in RSS, resizable text fields, private browsing and enhanced security."
