The first webpage was served off a NeXTcube at CERN, Switzerland, developed by Tim Berners-Lee. He also wrote the first web browser, confusingly named WorldWideWeb - the world of web browsers has come a long way since then, more or less turning into a platform of their own. This puts increasing pressure on web browsers to be really really good pieces of software, and as such, ZDnet has a 7-page comparison of the world's major web browsers, comparing Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, and Safari.

There is no evidence this is a zero day attack, and that anybody cares about [attacking] Safari with it's marketshare less than Firefox. Secondly the exploit goes hand in hand with an *old* still unpatched IE flaw.
There's still that zero day flash exploit going around. If anything, don't worry about Safari, make sure you have Flash turned off, and if at all possible, don't use Windows
