safari = poo

I tried out the Safari browser again today. Downloaded and installed the latest version. Double-checked all my settings. And... it still sucks. Every important website I require access to I cannot get to with this browser. How can something fail so spectacularly and still be so loved by people?

My webmail site - The ssl cert on my webmail site is messed up. I know this. It will get fixed eventually, when my friend gets around to it. In the meantime, I have told Firefox that I am aware of the issue, and voila! I read my emails. In IE, the same. In Safari I get this gem "Safari can’t open the page “(insert my webmail url here)” because it couldn’t establish a secure connection to the server." Thanks Safari! There are no options, no explainations, no ways around it.

Then there are the websites I have to get to for work. They are, obviously, internal websites. I've added those IPs to the 'bypass proxy' section in the network config. Still Safari cannot get to them. It's like it totally ignores that box.

Yay Safari - you suck.
