[QUOTE="jrcjr, post: 872209, member: 109771"] [b]Safari Crashes with embedded WMV files[/b] I've been having this problem for about a year or so now and have taken to avoiding sites with WMV content. Recently I encountered a suggestion for a similar problem and went to check my [B]Hard Drive/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/[/B] folder. Inside I had [B]Flip4Mac WMV Plugin.Plugin[/B] and [B]Flip4Mac WMV Plugin.webplugin[/B] [U]My solution was to put the webplugin version into the Disabled Plug-Ins folder and reboot Safari.[/U] I immediately went to a site with embedded WMV content and it didn't crash. Hopefully this works for others. Keep in mind that it might not be those two specific plugins for you if you don't have Flip4Mac installed, but look for two plug-ins trying to do the same job and temporarily disable one. [/QUOTE]
