Another data point on this issue: I've been using Macaroni on three computers for a couple of years now with no problems -- with Safari or anything else. Certainly no Kernel Panics -- except of course a spate of them on my Cube, which after much gnashing of teeth, turned out to be the result of a RAM chip gone bad. As far as I understand, it just runs the maintenance scripts that the OS would normally run in the middle of the night (but when many people have their computers turned off). Of course, YMMV.........
