What's the distribution of Safari vs IE on Windows systems? The earlier one is "Less Critical" on Safari versions before 5.1.2, but it is only a partial fix in 5.1.2. Neither states that it has been exploited in the wild. Regardless, they should be patched, though. I use FF, so "Meh." _________________________
