Germain,

All you have to do to solve your problem is to get the latest OmniWeb  
browser, which is basically the best of the bunch although you have  
to pay for it. Otherwise, just download the latest version of Camino,  
which works fine. I found it to be more reliable than Safari, and it  
seems to me to be a little faster. I hope to see Safari improved in  
the near future.
