Why does alert(navigator.appName) Lock-Up Safari

This...

alert(navigator.appName);

...alerts the browser type in every other browser (google, opera, firefox, IE) but it completely locks-up safari and I have to go in and "end program" to stop it. Does any body know why?

here is the whole piece of code...

<script language="JavaScript">   
if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Netscape")> -1){  
    document.animation.ttt.rows=5;document.animation.ttt.cols=9;}// 
//alert(navigator.appName);
</script>

if I comment it out it is fine. If I alert it, it locks (only in Safari). Crazy?

(edit) updated to latest version... safari 5.0.3 (7533.19.4) no effect on lock up

Works fine in my Safari 5.0.3. Which version are you using? It has to be the code before or after the alert. For starters check your loops.
