I am using Safari 5.0.6, and noticed as far back as November 2012, that I can no longer open Reader, or the Blogs I Follow. Sometimes Freshly Pressed doesn't open as well.

I went to a local library to log into my Blog, and even the system they use had a hard time loading Reader.

I use MAC OS X Version 10.5.8 (Leopard). Should I upgrade Safari, and/or my hardware?

Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html
