Unstable Safari

Safari is known to eat up memory after a few days of use, but it has generally been stable for me. Ever since Mac OS 10.4.5, I have experienced terrible stability with it. It locks up and dies at least once a day, usually two or three times. I have it installed in a 12" PowerBook G4 and a G5 iMac and it does the same thing on both. I have Flip4Mac installed in both, but otherwise nothing out of the ordinary. Is anyone else having this problem?

    I have noticed similar problems and have a temporary fix that works for me at least. I empty the cache every day or sometimes every couple of hours depending on how much I have been using it.



    When closing safari I also empty the cache then and clear the history which has helped keep safari running smoothly for me.
