Javascript sites crashing Safari

Since upgrading my PowerBook G4 15" (Dec'05) 1.5GB RAM 80GB HD to MacOSX 10.4.7 I have been having Safari (2.0.4) crash on web sites that make extensive use of Javascript. Excite.com, Blogger.com are two that are extremely and repeatably prone to crashes.

I have Java and Plugins turned off. If I turn off Javascript then the crashing stops. Unfortunately these sites require Javascript.

The only two extras I have are Sogudi and Pithhelmet. Eliminating them does not stop the crashes.

Does anyone know about this problem? A fix?
