1. Go to /private/var/folders/

in one of the (2-letter named) folders there will be a /-Tmp-/ folder. On my 
computer it lokks like this:
/private/var/folders/6e/6eRH52OiE6SYqDRJm1xypE+++TI/-Tmp-/

2. in this folder, delete all files that start with IsRunning{gears}-*.*.*.*

3. Restart Safari, it should work.
