(IN PROGRESS. NEED CONSULT ON DESELECTING POP-UP BLOCKER. Notes for reviewers - I have used Safari for a secure test without disabling pop-up blocker, and it works. The only error I've gotten is when I use it without running TestNav in unsafe mode. With running in unsafe mode, the test launches fine. 
I know pop-ups are not related to unsafe mode, BUT because you cannot selectively block pop-ups in Safari, I am concerned about having admins unblock completely when it works for me. I've researched and asked around, but cannot get a clear answer from anyone. Any experts, please chime in. The instructions for enabling pop-ups are below for now.
