Top Sites performance improved
Apple on Thursday released Safari 4.0.5, bringing improvements to security, stability and performance. The latest version is said to offer improvements to stability for third-party plug-ins, along with websites using online forms or scalable-vector graphics. A compatibility issue with Linksys routers has been fixed, while the Top Sites feature is said to offer increased performance.
A long list of security vulnerabilities have been addressed, including several issues with WebKit. Image handling has been revamped to prevent malicious attacks using BMP or TIFF files. Other fixes relate to ColorSync validation and cookies set by RSS feeds.
Safari 4.0.5 is now available as a free download for Windows and Mac systems.

okay Apple
Now please let us turn off Top Sites.
I know I can run it in the background and never look at it, but what's so hard about letting us turn it off completely?
