My Safari shuts itself down.

Question

I noticed my Safari shuts itself down when I watch stuff on Netflix or leave Safari running for a while. This never use to happen until recently.

Answer 1

You’ve been infected with the “Flashback” malware. See this Apple support document:
About Flashback malware
Back up all data, if you haven't already done so.
Select  ▹ Software Update to install the latest Java update (if Java is already installed) or the Flashback malware removal tool (if Java is not installed under Lion), as well as any other available updates. Installing either of those items should clear the infection in most cases. You must update to the latest version of Mac OS X 10.6 or 10.7 before you can install the Java update.
The removal tool runs automatically in the background and is then deleted. Don’t look for something to click. If the malware is removed, you’ll be notified.
After you’ve secured your system — not before — change every Internet password you have, starting with banking passwords, and check all financial accounts for unauthorized transactions.
