Spoiler: it's IE 6 -- and the copy even says at the end that the surprise is that it's not a surprise. Points for the Ash reference though.

IE6 is a bad browser, how shocking.
The actual interesting story here is Safari 5.

Safari on windows is terrible. In my own tests last year it kept erroring out or rendering incorrectly. http://www.craftymind.com/guimark2/
Safari 5 on OSX Lion is terrible.
I'm usually a safari fan, but since upgrading last week nothing but trouble. Opened Chrome and Firefox a few times instead but I'm to accustomed to Safari now... and admittedly the gestures are AWESOME.
I was hoping the 10.7.1 update would have fixed it but nope :/ Maybe 10.7.2, I feel my days numbered ATM though
Earlier versions of Safari on Windows seem to work fine
It turned out to be a bug in their testing framework.

Is this what you're referring to?
