Safari issues

Hey guys,

Within the past week or so, Safari has been giving me issues when it comes to youtube videos that are embedded as well as certain websites such as HBO: Entourage: Homepage (I know that's pretty random, but it works on Mozilla)

I update my computer whenever my MacBook tells me to, so I'm not sure what's up.

Thanks in advance!

Occasionally the flash player will crap itself on extremely flash-heavy sites. That's due to flash player being crap, not really a Safari thing. I've had it blow up in other browsers as well.

But I think the main thing will remain the Apple & Adobe relationship problem. Mac users will keep having problem with flash videos from time to time. But I'd rather live with that than go back to Windows/PC era.

There's no real "relationship problem". Jobs and Adobe have taken shots at each other, but that's not the reason flash has stability issues. Flash has stability issues because it's shoddy software, though in some situations a necessary evil.

It will become less an issue with the adoption of HTML5.
