| every browser crashes! Ok, I usually was using Firefox, 3 and sometimes 2 because some features did not work nice on FX3. It started to crash every single time. As soon as I relaunch, it didn't even finish loading my homepage and it will crash. I started changing (deleting) all the .pl files. I could re-open, it would launch, open a couple of pages and then, boom! Again... start crashing at launching. So... I took out (I believe) all firefox components then downloaded and installed again. Same thing, Would launch at first, but then nothing. Same as before. So I quit. Started to use Safari. Was using Safari with no problem for about a week, and suddenly yesterday, same symptoms as in Firefox. Not even the home page! Thought I was screwed without any browser to look for help. So I used RealPlayer to navigate !! (I felt very clever for this!) Using Realplayer I downloaded Camino and Opera. Used camino last night, everything was fine, and then.. this morning... same thing, same symptoms. Seems like a mozilla crash.. right? So, now I am using Opera.. my last (is there any other?) option. Any ideas of what is happening? I DO not want to download/use Explorer for mac.. but hey, I'm getting out of options here! |

| Is it a specific site that crashes the browsers (perhaps one that uses Flash or something)? Can you try creating a new user account, logging in under that account, then seeing if the web browsers crash under that new user account?

| nop, no specific site Hola Diablo-Con-Caca.. (bonito nombre!) Nop, not a specific site where it crashes. If so, it is igoogle, wich is my homepage, but again, they do not seem to crash when I just installed them, they started working in every page for a while before they start crashing. I also switched users to see if that solved the problem, but it did not. The other user had the exact same behavoir. I have not created a newuser account. Last night I was using Camino, everything looked like it was working fine, then I closed it to do something else. I could not open Camino again, crashes before it loads the homepage. Right now I am using Opera, and I am kind of scared of what could happen if I close it to log-in as the new user. Perhaps I'll give it a try leaving Opera runnning in my account. |

| If all the browsers are crashing that means a plug-in is causing it. So go to the folder /HardDrive/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ and find the plug-in that is older or causing the crashing.
