Easy there Mac Fanboy. Love my Mac but have no desire to use Safari. I'm using Firefox quite happily.

No proof. Just talk. But there are always security vulnerabilities. No software is rock solid.

13 security updates to fix flaws in Safari.

Quicksilver will become famous soon enoughQuicksilver will become famous soon enough
Not in an uproar here. Just seeking information. (thanks for that) Use what you wish but as you say "there are always security vulnerabilities. No software is rock solid." Therefore since no one that i have heard of has been victim of any of these issues i prefer to use the browser that works best with the OS.

I don't use Safari on my Mac because I have heard that it is weak in term so security and it's slow.
No to an A/V program. Yes to Safari, it's the fastest

A/V Programs on OSX are generally not worth it.
