Safari 4 is a bit slow compared to either Opera and Firefox. but i like the interface and graphics of Safari 4, it is cool though.

Apple Safari takes more resources compared to Opera and Firefox. sometimes it also freezes so i would still stick to Opera.

Thanks for all of your suggestions. I am sure glad you all are out there to help.
The only thing that ended up working for me was to install my old OS-X.
It gave me back my old safari and my e-mail worked fine again.

As noted above, re-download Safari 4. One of the options in the installer is to uninstall. It’ll then put Safari 3 back in it’s place.

I downloaded the newest version of Safari (4.0) last night. Now I find out that it has totally messed up
my entire e-mail system. I cannot send any e-mails. I can only receive them.

Is there an easy way to go back to my old Safari ?? Help.

I think this is an MSN problem. I have no choice now on my e-mail provider. I am stuck with MSN.

By the way — if you’re having problems with Safari 4 Public Beta then it may be worth trying it with the latest WebKit loaded. Here’s how to do that — written for people who have a particular problem, but potentially valid as a fix for other problems as well:

It’s not necessarily obvious how you uninstall Safari 4 to roll back to 3.2.1. Here’s how:

It worked fine for me for almost a week.. since this morning, it has already twice..:(
How to uninstall Safari 4? Simply drag and drop into trash will do? Would I still be having safari 3? I did not delete safari 3 before installing 4.

[...] to your heart – there’s been more than a few reports about the (un)expected beta bugs and crashes. I’ve run across a few myself – Hotmail, Gmail with Google Gears, WordPress, and clearing [...]

Darn typos. It’s fixed now. And I’ve had no crashes on my Mac related to websites.
