Thanks: Gave 20, Got 8 | Safari quitting?
Anyone else finding this? Mainly with this forum I find, esp if I hit back, or next page or a different sub-section. Only started after I did a system software update yesterday. Can't recall what it was, security I think. Will look into it later. Just running Cocktail in case permissions have got messed up.

Yup - quitting here too - on bug report it seems the new flash plugin is taking the first 5 or 6 threads so it could be that crashing with an in-line ad ...

I had this immediately after the flash upgrade but it seems to have reconciled. Mail OTOH crashed 3 times yesterday while doing nothing.

I gave my old dad my mac mini last year and for the past few days my son has been on it probably wwe, halloween or utube sites anyhoo I oversaw the security update the other day BTW yesterday the safari kept resetting especially when I clicked "back" on these forums I thought my son had killed the mini and was going to bash him about the head BUT!!! seeing this thread has saved him a few lumps ( kidding of course) thankyou folks 
Is there any way to cure it??? seemed ok today tho'
EDIT ... I also found that there was a black border on the screen until I did a restart!!
Anyone know why the mini should cease chiming on start up?? this happened ages ago???

I had this problem as well, but checking this morning there is another security update that affects safari, so hopefully this is the fix for it!

Macfixit is reporting that Security Update 2007-009 (#5) (the new one) seems to cause crashes with Safari, so if you have installed that update, have a look at their instructions on how to remove it and see if all is then well with Safari.

There is an updated version to the latest security update ( Here), and according to this, it fixes the issue with Safari crashing. I installed it last night and so far so good. Safari seems to be OK now with sites that have a lot of advertising.

Crashing here aswell despite update - and crash report box still suggesting flash plug-in is to blame ...

Try installing the latest version of Flash then repairing permissions to see if that helps.

Hey guys I booted up my son's gift of an iMac this morning which has not had these security updates yet and safari quit on these forums on that machine!!!!! is it the forum itself????
Well I bit the bullet and did a software update on the machine one of the updates was the latest security update ( we did not have any of last weeks' updates loaded) seems that if it is a fresh install of just the very latest one that there are no problems at all thus far!!
After doing a little more surfing elsewhere I shall report back if I hit any problems anywhere
