Install Firefox ... update your Flash version (IMPO). Enjoy.

Try uninstalling flash, rebooting and then reinstalling it. Something might be corrupted/etc.

Mac OSX says nothing to me other than... well I will not say

broken Safari tells me you screwed da pooch

So which is it.....

10.3 (your stuck to firefox 2.0 chump)
10.4
10.5

I seem to have a better workout dodging your stupidity than attempting to grasp the weight of your intelligence.

Good to see you got it figured out. In the future you can try some of these:

You can often clear out the Library Pref files and Caches in OSX for specific programs that crash on start up. A corrupt Pref file can prevent a program from launching. Just be careful here, this is similar to nuking registry entries on a Windows machine.

Google around and look for MacOSX Helpmate. Its a pretty handy program that Apple consultants use for clearing up old cache files and file system errors. We have a copy at work and its a good way to freshen up an older MacOSX install.
