Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

There is a quiz on facebook called the never ending movie quiz. Whilst play it I noticed that rhythmbox's music playing would become sporadic. By looking at System monitor I noticed that both cpu's where running at 100% when the stoppages occurred.
