Long story short, I haven't updated my macbook in awhile. I am running 10.5.8 and the reason I have not updated it in awhile is because the new iTunes is not compatible with my 1 generation nano (been in the lake twice.)
Anyway, the reason I am writing this message is because I foolishly updated safari 4 (which worked perfectly fine) to the current version earlier today and after using it for about 2 minutes I realized that my 1password application is not compatible with the new safari (no button to press). Of course, I could have paid 25 bucks to get the newest version of 1password which is compatible with Safari 5 but I decided to try to delete Safari 5 myself and go back to the way things were prior to the update.
I went delete crazy. I used AppZapper to take out safari and basically deleted anything safari related and emptied the trash. Upon trying to install safari 4 it tells me that it cannot install it b/c of a newer version on the computer. I then decide, well, maybe this trouble would have been worth the 25 bucks after all. I then tried to install safari 5.0.1 any was greeted by the same error message telling me about a newer version on my mac. I tried to install 5.0.2 and it says it cannot be installed unless I have leopard 10.6 which I do not want to do.
Anybody out there who can help me get the rest of the safari stuff off my machine so I can reinstall Safari 4?? I would be a very happy man if I could get safari back to the way it was just 24 hours ago. I knew I was doing something stupid when going delete crazy and now I feel like a complete fool for not doing my research prior to all this.
Please help me!

. If I try to load firefox while safari is open it fails to load until I force quit safari. I dont know what I deleted but I recall a library/safari location being deleted at a place or so and also some 'meta' something file that had like 5000+ items in it when I was emptying the trash.
