What just happened with my computer?
I have a mac and I had a couple of windows open in Safari when it suddenly shut down Safari and the head for Word appeared and apparently was trying to open this file on my desktop. I rebooted and it seems to be okay, but what was up with that?

3. The Apple people recommend
Intego. For what that's worth, haven't tried it myself.
