Bug Description

When I visit any site that has flash, the site will load fine. But upon leaving
the site to go to any other site, it will hang indefinitely. The strace of it
has it hanging with the following:

gettimeofday({1128911147, 987627}, NULL) = 0
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {0, 11000}) = 0 (Timeout)
gettimeofday({1128911147, 997921}, NULL) = 0
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {0, 11000}) = 0 (Timeout)
gettimeofday({1128911148, 9486}, NULL) = 0
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {0, 11000}) = 0 (Timeout)
gettimeofday({1128911148, 19909}, NULL) = 0
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {0, 11000}) = 0 (Timeout)
gettimeofday({1128911148, 31005}, NULL) = 0
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {0, 11000}) = 0 (Timeout)
gettimeofday({1128911148, 41902}, NULL) = 0
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {0, 11000}) = 0 (Timeout)
gettimeofday({1128911148, 52856}, NULL) = 0

This occurs as long as I let it hang. This does not occur using the same flash
plugin for firefox 1.5b1 or epiphany.

I am currently using firefox 1.0.7-0ubuntu19
