From: Pd on 29 Apr 2010 11:18 Just got an email from Paypal suggesting I use a "safer browser", with download links for Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer (poor old Opera doesn't get a mention, let alone Safari), and also recommending downloading "Iconix". It takes a lot of clicks and screens before you finally get to a page that says Windows XP, Vista and 7. And Iconix think Apple's Mail is a "Webmail Application". Impressive levels of ignorance. -- Pd
