Mike, If there is a slowdown with Safari then it is a problem with AT&T for all test I have ever seen of Safari vs Explorer is no contest at all for Safari is one of the fastest browsers available and for it to be slower then there is lack of Safari support by the provider. I get 5.0 (which is what I pay for) using Safari each time I run the test (until last night). On Cable I get the 10 meg they advertise, using Safari.
