i had this problem with internet explorer - this was the issue, i was having people log in using https:// and then when they tried to log out via regular http:// it wouldn't log them out correctly - all i needed to do to fix it was to change the logout button to go though https://myserver.com/register/logout and it worked fine... i don't knowt if you have https... but if you do that might be it. BTW, mozilla (which i normally use) logged out just fine. I hate that all the web browsers behave differently it makes testing so much more tedious.

Gabriel, I think safari does actually log you out but it doesn't correctly refresh the resulting page, thus giving you the impression of still being logged in. If you hit something like Ctrl-Shift-Reload you should see the logged out page. I hope this problem is fixed with the recent addition of no-cache headers to openacs - at least when testing with konqueror it seems to be fixed.
