Top sites on Safari 4 beta and watching movies on netflix crash my browser

Whenever I try to view Top Sites on safai 4 public beta my browser crashes. Now I'm completely all right with that and its not a big deal but what is very annoying is that my browsers (safari and firefox) crash whenever trying to view netflix "view it now" videos.

Does this have to do with my video card or what? Everything works fine with my video card accept I keep getting random web browser crashes while trying to do cretin things on it but the two that I remember happening because they happen every time are Top Sites and Netflix.

First try an older flash player, I had that problem and it was because of the latest flash update. I've also had many issues with some sites that have mixed content, java and flash, so I've done some testings loading multiple flash pages and it crashes sometimes, even if you don't interact with it.

This also may be a problem with voodoo kernel, since crash logs always mentions dyld, (On AMD systems it's built into the kernel).

Thank you. I will try experimenting with older flash players and try the new voodoo kernel =)
