Summary: your most visited sites are displayed by Safari to chose from - these can be manipulated by an attacker using javascript - replaced sites can be used to phish your account details (eg bank details) and the URL can be hidden due to another Safari bug.

Result: all your $$$ are belong to teh crakzorz if you use Saf4's "top sites" feature (I'd be wary of the equivalents in other browsers too).

I'm so glad this had nothing to do with the jam band.
