Can you confirm the following Safari bugs in Tiger? If not, how do I get rid of them?

1) If you slide the dot between the Address Bar and the Google Search Bar to change their respective sizes, a "slur" is left between them. I guess this is best described as a trail of movement that doesn't go away.

2) Sometimes tabs don't get darker when the mouse hovers over them (even when the rest of Safari is still "snappy").

3) The Address Bar's background is solid white while the Bookmark Bar still has the faint grey stripes. This looks kinda weird.

Things you should know in case it makes a difference in helping to explain the above bugs:
- Running 10.4.1.
- I have installed themes, but none of them are currently applied.
- According to Metallifizer, Safari is listed in the "Enhanced Applications" section, but not the "Settings" section. No other haxies that I know of.

Thanks.

I think the Mac OS forum was the wrong place for me to put it. So here it is in the appropriate forum.

Uninstalling Metallifizer fixed problem #1. Obviously, problem #3 is no longer an issue as well, since Safari is back in Brushed Metal. I guess it makes sense that Metallifizer was causing those problems since the most recent version of it was released during Jaguar.

Problem #2 still persists, but I hear basically everyone has that bug. Correct me if I'm wrong.
