> 2. Open the attached page with a link. Does this depend on page? I'm asking because there isn't one attached. Did this work in Safari 5.0?

Created attachment 107860 [details] Test case Apologies, I meant to attach this when creating the bug. I have not yet tested with 5.0, but I did talk with Brady and he mentioned that visited link coloring should work even while in Private Browsing. We don't give the information about the link color / visited state to the web page and therefore it cannot be used to track the user, so we should provide the user with the visited link information.

This is not a regression from 5.0.5 on Snow Leopard.
