    1.) Do not cross post.
    2.) What do you mean Safari? As far as I know it was never made for a Windows machine.

    i dont think its Itunes and Safari that have something wrong with them, so more likely your touch pad driver doesn't work with those programs since i doubt they have issues....

    - Does the scrolling work with a regular USB mouse?
    - Have you fiddled with all the touch pad settings?
    - Does the touchpad do what you expect it to in other applications? (eg. Firefox)
    - Have you looked in the other forums? (eg. Mac)
    - Have you done a google search?

    You could also ditch Safari, there's no reason to use it with Windows.
