Growl's installers don't modify Safari, so they haven't corrupted  
Safari in any way.

We do supply an input manager called GrowlSafari. I used to use it  
regularly, and it hasn't changed in awhile, so I can assure you that  
it works fine.

My guess is that you're using GrowlSafari and one or more other input  
managers together. No-one can predict how any two input managers will  
interoperate, and it's possible that GrowlSafari and another input  
manager are conflicting.

My suggestion is to delete GrowlSafari, or to try removing other input  
managers and see what other one might be the culprit.

There are two places to look. Straight input managers are here:

        Your startup disk
                Library
                        InputManagers

Some other programs use a program called SIMBL (Smart Input Manager  
Bundle Loader), which regulates them a bit. For example, SIMBL allows  
plug-ins to specify which applications to load them into, whereas an  
input manager loads into *every* application.

SIMBL plug-ins have their own folder:

Your Home folder
        Library
                Application Support
                        SIMBL
                                Plugins

GrowlSafari is a plain input manager, not a SIMBL bundle, so it's in  
the InputManagers folder.

Growl itself does not affect Safari, or any other application. To  
delete GrowlSafari, drag it to the Trash, log out, log back in, and  
empty the Trash.
