I thought Safari only works on Macs? there are ads on here anyway, even with any other internet explorer program. How many ads are you getting?

There's only one Internet Explorer.

There's other web browsers you can try like Mozilla FireFox or Opera ;) Mozilla has an Ad Blocking addon. Dono about Opera? But Opera's said to be more Acid3 Proof.

Safari is meant to be for Macs. I still don't know why they port it on win. When you saving a web page it doesn't save pics. It's annoying but Safari is really speedy

why, something you always can do. safari for win doesn't have it's own ad blocker. But you can see this blog
