Hi John: What's happening is this. If I try to download a file, any file, Safari gets strange. If I download something, I stop interacting with HTML content. I interact with the toolbar. I click the download button. Immediately, I start hearing "Safari busy". Basically, this means I cannot check the progress of a download, because if I try to interact with the item I want to check, I get Safari busy messages and my keystrokes do nothing! It's extremely frustrating! On Oct 9, 2011, at 9:36 PM, John Panarese wrote:
