This version of Safari seems to finally play nice with "Show Desktop"/"Minimize All Windows", this alone is enough for me to give it another try as my main browser

I just installed this version today. I noticed it is MUCH, MUCH stabler, and I can now access the Windows taskbar with the Safari window maximized, and when I restore the Safari window after minimizing, it comes up very quick, as opposed to taking a few seconds for the graphics to re-appear (which was the case with the previous beta versions).

I also noticed the UI has changed slightly - more closely matching the Mac OS X Leopard's look of Safari. Overall, Safari 3.0.4 is an excellent improvement over the other betas.

One objection was that it did not save passwords. This time I was asked if I wanted to save the password. AutoFill seem to work.

It seems to work well in Windows 2000 as well. Which is something I could not do with the beta before.

Apple has released Safari 3.0.4 security update for Windows.
The new release addresses an issue where visiting a malicious website may result in the disclosure of sensitive information. Specifically, WebKit allows a page to navigate the subframes of any other page. Visiting a maliciously crafted web page could trigger a cross-site scripting attack, which may lead to the disclosure of sensitive information. This update addresses the issue by implementing a stricter frame navigation policy.

It works. I took very little time to do its job.
I am, still, not used to a program which will not log me in automatically, if I choose to do it.
Also, the fact, it does not copy (context-click), but requires a cumbersome way( as I understand). But I like a lot of features of Safari.
