I'd like to update Safari to 4.0.5 for security reasons, but I can't figure out how to run the Apple updater manually. On Mac there's usually a "Check for Updates" menu item, but I don't see one on the Windows version. I tried downloading the latest version from http://www.apple.com/safari/download/, but Windows won't let me open the file, saying it is a security risk.

Interresting... Check what's the error message because I can download it here. Can you paste your error message? – r0ca Mar 18 '10 at 12:40
Wow, lucky you to have such a problem. I can't get that damn Apple update software to stop running. :-) – BBlake Mar 18 '10 at 12:42
The security problem was that I had my Internet security settings set to "High." Taking them down to "Medium-High" while I downloaded the file worked. – James A. Rosen Mar 18 '10 at 13:18

Aha! It's a top-level item under Programs. I assumed it would be in the Safari folder. – James A. Rosen Mar 18 '10 at 13:16
