| Will Inquisitor and SafariTabs still work if I update to 3.2? |

I'm not sure about SafariTabs, but I read that Inquisitor was working. |

Looks like a nice update, but I'm very tempted to make the switch to one of the Mozilla browsers just for the ease of customisation.

I really like how the phishing features were implemented. It also seems to work well.  |

As much as I like Safari, that's one of the main reasons why I use Firefox. I'm also a big fan of the "Awesome Bar" address bar. I didn't like it at first, but it's grown on me. |

| Running great. I also appreciate the new anti-phishing protection. Better late than never, I guess. |

In my dock I've got Safari, Cruz, Firefox and Camino. Opera is in my programmes too. Cruz works well with minor issues. Safari blocks to much and does not work well with some advertising sites.

| I've been having trouble with Safari opening slowly, but this update seems to have corrected that. Now, I wish that I could say the same thing about iTunes 8.0.1. It takes forever to startup. |

Safari seems to working a little faster alright, and I agree with you about iTunes. Most of the time I use iTunes just for streaming audio while I'm working. I wish there was a (small) app of some sort just for doing that so I wouldn't have to use iTunes. It would even be better if it could be started from the terminal. |

Working great for me... seems a bit faster.
I do respect FF for its customizability but I personally get a better overall user experience with Safari. Tried Camino a few times but it just doesn't do it for me either. |

It doesn't work from the Terminal, but you may like Cog.
