Hi,

I don't know if it is of any help but found these http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107657 tips.

Hope it helps

I tried to follow through the page, but no luck. Works perfectly with a new test user. Any suggestions? (I did repair permissions.)

If you installed some plugins for Safari it could be one of those things. Safari doesn't seem to like third party plugins. Deactivating the plugins and restarting could help. If this isn't the case then I can only think of one solution... Yes the big reinstall. What a drag...
I understand that with the next version they are working on the Safari problems. Hope they do a good job cause often Safari isn't up to do a good job.

My problem is the flash plugin and nobody have been able to fix it. Safari crashes always after loading a flash animation. Light or heavy, don´t mind. It happens running Panther and Tiger. I downloaded new plugings, but it is futile. In the apple support page don´t have any solutions as well.

Edit cuz I´m new here and I didn´t know how it works. Sorry.

Ok, I know... It's only R'n'R.
...but I like it.

I think it's linked with Macromedia Flash Player 8 Beta and Safari..

and I tried to uninstall version 7.0r24 and install that beta version...

The problem continues. Now, I come back to a new (just downloaded from Macromedia) 7.0r24. And it crashes the same way.

And it happens with all my browsers.

I have to navigate with plugins desactivated... just think about it... no quicktime, no flash, no... :(
