About the New Safari Version:
What you are seeing is one of the updated features of Safari. This
little gizmo is what stores passwords, user-names etc. (Similar to
other browsers) and it stores them in your keychain. It is asking your
permission to actually use the stored information. it activates when
you hit a site that has a form on a page. if you answer 'allow once' it
will activate and stay active while you have Safari running until you
quit Safari, then the next time you start and hit a page with a form it
will ask permission again. If you answer 'always allow' you should not
be asked again.
