Mike, This may not do a thing, but I would at least try it. Under the Safari Header, go down to "reset" Safari and agree to the resetting, this cleans out several items. Also, my programmer has been having a lot of problems with a large database we use, he kept getting errors with 4d (the database program), it kept doing weird things.
He did all the utility programs on the hard drive and now it runs perfectly, so if the reset doesn't help possibly doing maintenance will correct the problem. Since I am just a surface knowledge guy I only know to do the basic items, but it sure keeps several machines going and going and going with no problems, I really believe in preventative care.
