In fact, now I'm not sure that the problem will be Firefox, because
yesterday I intalled Opera 9.5 and it happened the same thing: the
system got locked and I had to restart pressing the reset bottom.

I've noticed too that the system cashes if something is downloading and
I try to see some .flv file.

I'll do more tests and I will report again if something new happens.

I can't remember now, but I'd say that happend to me with Firefox 2.0 or
with the beta of 3.0. But then was another tning because then only
firefox cashed but not all the system. As xinchen says, when restarting
firefox, the adress was ok. But now, I have to restart because not the
mouse, not the keyboard work.
