I've tried Safari on a Mac. Not impressed, it's harder to use than Firefox or IE. If I ever get a Mac, Firefox or Seamonkey (successor to Mozilla) will be its browser.

The issue with IE is that it allows ActiveX controls to load and run without asking. If you're behind a corporate firewall and the ActiveX controls are used by some company application, then IE is tolerable. If you're a home or small business user, ActiveX is a security hole, and so is IE.
