    Web payment firm Paypal has said it will block "unsafe browsers" from using its service as part of wider anti-phishing efforts.

    Customers will first be warned that a browser is unsafe but could then be blocked if they continue using it.....

    Internet Explorer 7, Firefox 2 and Opera 9 have phishing filters, but Apple's browser -- Safari -- does not. Safari also does not support Extended Validation SSL (Secure Socket Layer) Certificates, issued to Web sites that have been vetted as legitimate.

    Well something has to kill the outdated beast! More power to PP.

    And Safari should upgrade theirs also for the 5% who use it.

    No sympathy from this corner of the room.
