"Using the current version of Safari on my 10.6.8 MBP, I'm unable to connect to the Internet via WiFi at United's Club lounge at the San Francisco Airport. I get a spinning wheel and then a message that the server isn't responding and a timeout. Multiple times. When I tried it using Chrome, I was able to connect quickly with no problems. Closed Chrome, tried using Safari, and ran into the same problems. It seems that Safari's version 5 has become increasingly problematic with each upgrade."?MacInTouch?11:32 AM
