Website Crashes Firefox and Locks up Ubuntu PC

[Karl]

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Website Snopes.com crashes Firefox and completely locks up Ubuntu and my AMD 64 PC.

I have to do a hard reboot.

Look for yourself click the video files.

 Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.
