Sadly many websites aren't still 100% compatible with browsers other that Internet Explorer. It is likely that the ActiveX and incompatible coding cause intermittent crashes. My only solution is to install different browsers and use them on trial and error basis.

Here are some alternatives you can try.

I would recommend you disable any add-ons you may have installed on Firefox, I've been running it since I bought my MacBook Pro and have never had a single bad page render or a crash.

I'm not sure what's going on there, but that seems like an awful lot of instability and it seems atypical of what the average user sees. Firefox is a fairly mature product now and is extremely popular, even among Mac users. Page rendering problems should be few and far between, especially now that Firefox has such a significant market share overall.
