Boot into OS9 and run diskwarrior,

Or boot OSX into single user mode (holding down the command key and S)
and then at the prompt type "fsck -y" without quotes... then look and
see what fsck reports. when it's done you can run it again and see if
it still reports problems or not. then type "reboot" if the file
system was modified....

Download the 1/10/03 version of safari and make sure the 1/03/03
version is deleted...

There is also a more serious problem Safari can cause, which is
documented in an Apple tech note, but you'd know if that was going on,
since everything would be wacky.
