Yeah, it also looks like Safari's recent improvements in terms of plugins that they introduced in Snow Leopard have successfully prevented this problem from taking down the whole browser.
- wehriam 17y agoHow recent? 4.0.4 crashed for me.
- wehriam 17y agoThe Firefox nightly (3.7a1pre) also crashed.

- FluidDjango 17y agoNOTE: I generally browse with ClickToFlash active in Safari. That of course prevented the crash (until I clicked). With Safari 4.0.4 (ClickToFlash turned off) the browser was fine but the Flash plug-in died, and Safari informed me: > Flash Player (Safari Intenet plug-in) quit unexpectedly. > This report will be sent to Apple automatically. PS: 10.6.2, FWIW
- cmelbye 17y agoYou need to have at least Snow Leopard, I believe. Apple recently moved plugins to separate processes, which prevents the entire browser from crashing. Flash will crash, but it won't take down the whole browser.
- ubernostrum 17y agoExcept IIRC this wasn't about security or stability; it was because they went 64-bit on everything and needed a way to have the 64-bit apps and 32-bit plugins interact sanely.
