[QUOTE="toMACsh, post: 923161, member: 112842"] Same here, and I have had none of the issues reported in this thread. You did not say if you tried the Reset Safari... suggestion. You could also try Empty Cache... from that menu. Other options, in the order of difficulty: 1. Move [B]com.apple.safari.plist[/B] to your Desktop. You will find in in your Home folder > Library > Preferences. (note: not Preference Panes, and be sure you're not in one of the other Library folders) Next step, open Safari. A new plist file will be created, set to original defaults. If your problems go away, Trash the file you moved. If it was better before (unlikely) put that file back where it was, overwriting the new one. 2. Log in under a different user account and see if the problems persist. If not, your usual User Account is corrupt and should be Trashed. If you need more info on Accounts, go to Mac Help in the Help menu of the Finder (click the Desktop to see it) Use the index, and select Accounts. 3. Reinstall Safari from a fresh download. 4. Reinstall Leopard and the latest combo update to get back to 10.5.8 Good luck, and report back! [/QUOTE]
