Internet Slow On Mac Mini With Mac OS

[barrydmd]

I have Mac OS 10.5.6 and also Windows XP using bootcamp.

I use Verizon DSL. Mac Mini: Intel Core 2 Duo. 1GB ram.

The internet is much faster when using Windows.

I get lots of beachballs with Safari.

I use Firefox with Windows.

Try Firefox for mac and see if it is any faster. You may have a corrupted preference file for safari. I'd try firefox and if it is faster, delete the preference file for safari. After that open safari and it will create a new preference file. Hope this helps. It's just a guess.
