APPle Macbook pro (about 4 or 5 years old) question.

I am a senior citizen and i worked with computers when I was working back before
2002..but Now I get a little confused??? I get this notice quick frequently - and I have been using Safari. I like it...because it is familiar, so if anyone can help me without me
calling in some geek for $50 bucks an hour, I would truly appreciate it.
On a desktop computers years back I used Firefox (I believe that was the name)
When I select SAFARI...I get about 9 or so that I can choose from?
That is my dilemma..so far..

hope it works. Your OS might determine just what version of Safari you can upgrade to.

[div style="display:inline-block; word-wrap:break-word;"]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safari_%28web_browser%29

Edit to add:

Or just put it in a link tag:

[div class="excerpt" style="display:inline-block; word-wrap:break-word; margin-left:1em; border:1px solid #bfbfbf; border-radius:0.4615em; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #bfbfbf inset;"][link:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safari_(web_browser)|wikipedia entry - Safari_(web_browser)]
