Right, got a major pain in the ass problem with my mac, or perhaps a couple of problems.

First of all, say I have three websites at the bottom, I might be surfing YouTube, and then the little coloured swirly thing will come up, and then I'm fucked, all the websites I have up, or at the bottom of the screen go.

Another more recent problem, is pressing a 'sign in' button, or 'enter password'... I'll put the password or login name in, but when clicking the sign in button, it simply won't let me do it.

Or on YouTube, trying to enter a comment, or turn the music down, or pause a video, it won't have it, or signing out. It seems to be getting worse.

Any ideas???

Might be worth installing another browser, like Chrome, to see if it's an issue with Safari or a problem with OSX.
Sounds royally Fubar'd though; personally i'd start thinking about backing up your data and doing a reinstall.

As above. A re install sounds like the best plan.

As much as I live it Safari can be shite. Yeh ok I have a few windows open with 5-10 tabs in each but it still shouldn't crash!
Firefox is super stable, and if it does crash it saves all the sites you had open. Give that ago

Any quick and easy ways of telling me about the reinstall? I'm not so good on computers to be honest.

If you have your Osx disk, back everything important up to a spare USB drive, then put DVD in and follow the instructions.

Reinstall, it's as simple as what russ said really.
