Strange Behaviour after MBP goes to sleep
I have a strange problem that started about 2 months ago, and no matter how much I search I can't seem to find an answer to it.

I have a 13" MBP running snow leopard 10.6.6

After my MBP goes to sleep, It wont shut down from the power button (The shutdown menu comes up, but the buttons don't respond). I have to select shut down from the Apple menu, but that can take upto 2 mins to show up after clicking on the apple.

Also after sleep, when I click on a link in both Chrome or Safari, instead of that link loading up in the tab im in, it opens in a new tab. When I click on the new tab, this tab shuts. Also tabs shut when I click them that were open before my MBP went to sleep.

I think its very strange that this happens in both Chrome and Safari. This is the main reason I need to shut down after sleep.

I have tried resetting the System Management Controller, but this has not helped. I hope one or more of you can shed some light on this frustrating situation!

Thanks in advance :)
