I had the same issue with Safari 5.1 running under 10.6.8 and found CosmoPod
was the offender

Stored in Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins was CosmoPod.bundle
which I deleted and Safari is now running properly.

I found turning OFF plugins in Safari made no difference to the problem and
made troubleshooting harder. There were no warning messages running under my
normal user account and only when I opened Safari in a new user account, did
the warning come up that CosmoPod was unhappy.  Console also helped me
detect the problem.
