Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

i'm using the hardy heron beta, and firefox just closed when i was browsing the web, and the bug report tool thing popped up.
i had titantv.org tv listings (need to register) and i had the flash player parts of the page blocked with ad block plus firefox addon (i dont know if its relevant).
then i opened a new tab and opened addictinggames.com and chose one of the games. the page almost loaded before crashing. i did this two times. i assume its related to flash player, but i'm not sure. i just updated my system today.

i just tried youtube and it works fine. i tried some other addictinggames games and they all seem to work except the one that caused the crash twice before. now the page loads but where the game is supposed to be, its just a gray/tan color. this is the game btw: http://www.addictinggames.com/fmxteam.html

ummm... when i pressed the save changes button to submit my last comment firefox froze. well actually everything froze. i had tvtime set to always on top in the corner and that kept showing tv and audio kept playing but mouse over pop ups didnt come up, and clicking stuff did nothing including the panels. i just waited for a minute or two while i was watching tv and everything came back. everything i clicked suddenly did something like i clicked to switch tabs in firefox when it was frozen, and when it came back it suddenly switched tabs. so far, it doesn't seem like hardy heron is ready for release in like a week, although this could be an isolated incident.
