Resolved - Safari crashed Mac


hi. encountered horrible issue on 27-inch imac (mid-2011) before christmas , wondering if else had encounter same problem.

had been surfing regular websites in safari when screen went white, , after few seconds imac restarted. once restarted, after logging imac, same thing happened before else.

fortunately have macbook saw me on christmas, having tried various options such starting in safe boot first (which ok), , using account have on imac (which ok), logging normal account , launching safari resulted in same white screen/restart.

used safe boot again, sent safari caches , preferences trash, , did hard boot.

seems have cured it, interested know if knows may have caused this.
assuming website has cached os x doesn't 1 with, avoid website if possible.

on os 10.11.2 , safari 9.0.2.

ideas/assistance gratefully received.
 

it may said in cache odd website caused this, fact safe mode boot alone fixed makes me think otherwise. safe mode boot stops startup , login items launching, if stopped it, makes me think have sort of conflict third party utility or app.

download , run app. etrecheck while in normal boot (not safe mode). create , anonymized report can upload here take @ might running.

after that, run app malwarebytes scan malware might have accidentally installed.

Sean Penn, "Chapo Guzman", and Rolling Stone

if you've spare twenty minutes or (and inclination) take @ sean penn's rambling account of meeting (then) fugitive mexican drug lord "chapo" guzman. its interesting on number of levels. not quality of sean penn's journalistic work. first observation had there remarkably little actual interviewing going on. penn's limited spanish ("hola" , "adios") played part. guzman made number of statements, claiming turned narcotics because there no other means of earning living. beyond that, nothing groundbreaking. sean penn himself of polarizing figure. guy rose fame jeff spicoli fancies himself of outlaw journalist, without writing chops of hunter s. thompson. prose of intelligent man; stylist ambitions out of reach of abilities. uses word "brume" describe aftereffects of bout of flatulence. pretentious word (i presume) not technically accurate. mentions twice expensive wristwatches sported guzman's sons -
