Yeah so getting the user to pull the machine apart is your first step....
Im done with this thread and your arrogant answers, you stick to your methods and i will carry on doing it on paper.
We are not politicians....and yes I considered it insulting to have my methods called 'useless' and 'If you are really a "MacTech" like you call yourself or a tech of any kind' We are here to help and if we disagree on matters thats fine but don't be pulling this. Just deal with the fact that...
Help was offered....
I always eliminate software first, then look to hardware.
This model has a 9600M GT video card, not the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT that is problematic according to Apple.
My approach-
Update flash
Test other flash video sites
Is it repeatable?
Test another user
Test another...
I know of it very well, its not always the first thing that springs to mind.
Look I would appreciate if you would refrain from insulting me like this on a public forum, its not cool, if you wish to take this offline. PM me and I will let you know in private what an 'elitist jerk' you are.
Wow, this is supposed to be a community help site?? I will not get into a slagging match like you have just done....
All I will say is that you do not have enough info to make that kind of diagnosis, no matter what you see everyday. I have seen enough weird stuff to know that an objective...

Try make a new test user on the machine and check if it happens as that user?
Try "reset Safari" under the Safari menu to go back to defaults?
If both browsers are crashing at same point it does indicate a shared item or underlying software as mentioned by Carolina above.

Ok no prob-
To access your server or web page from internet yes you can use a free dns provider.
To secure your server/files you must ensure that you have good passwords and no guest logins turned on. Only turn on the services you need.

I have used Data rescue quite a bit for recovery and sometimes it will give you the folder structure depending on state of directory. Cooling the drives again may help with this.
Disk warrior will also sometimes allow a 'preview' volume mounted of failed drive so you can copy elements/folders...
Hi
I think it may be the XP machine that is applying it own permissions to the files after copy. I have found in certain cases you either need to run a cron task to flood permissions on folders using a shell script to work around this or use a GUI tool to apply read/write for everyone-...
Hi
