[Ham-Mac] safari

[Tom Rees]

With so many responses, I will chime in again.
It is not necessarily enough to dump the Safari app and reinstall. If 
one of the support files/folders I listed in the previous email is 
corrupt, neither a reinstall of Safari or even an OS upgrade will 
replace them. In fact, an upgrade tries to 'go out of it's way' to keep 
things like preferences, cookies, caches, etc. It is a feature of 
virtually all the Mac OSs. But if a support file is corrupt the problem 
carries on and on. And it is so damned easy to start out your 
troubleshooting this way. Also remember this is UNIX, not Windows or 
old Mac OS. There is no need to restart after each trash so long as you 
quit the app in question before moving to the next step.

But hey, that's just me.
