[QUOTE="polaire6, post: 736288, member: 69693"] OS 10.3.9 I've been a victim of the dreaded safari crashes, which happened everytime I went to a site and used a link to other pages on that site. The error message always read: Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001) Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000008 followed by 16 pages of weird stuff. Well, after a lot of troubleshooting, deleting safari prefs (didn't work), repairing permissions (nope, that neither) I found a temporary solution was to disable JavaScript in the Security prefs. Can anyone explain? I'm fairly mac-literate but not a techie by a long straw. What's all that bad access, kern failure stuff? Has anyone any better & more lasting suggestions than disbling javascript? Or should I upgrade the OS to Tiger and switch to Firefox (can't get the new Firefox for 10.3.9). Would welcome advice! Thanks. [/QUOTE]
