Safari keeps freezing

Safari keeps freezing especially after I access email. I end up having to re-boot the computer and then it works for a day or so before freezing again and I have to go through the reboot process again. I have used first aid on the hard drive and then it works again for a day or so before repeating the problem, usually after I access emails.

Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. Please post back on whether or not this worked. Also try the Safe Mode. Please post back on whether or not this worked.
