I can confirm this is currently happening for me when I visit www.marca.com (amongst many other sites that have flash movies). I am 99% certain it is flashblock related because I disabled flashblock and was able to access the site without a problem, re-enabling it brings the problem again.

As a side note, I tried to get as much information about the crash as possible but it is proving to be a little hard for me since firefox-3.0-dbgsym & xulrunner-1.9-dbgsym won't install in my system (Repo problems for Hardy I guess? Broken packages - many others have reported the same problem) so I'm attaching what firefox dumped in the console. Let me know if there is a better way to provide the necessary information and I will do my best to get it here.

My setup:

Firefox:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008072820 Firefox/3.0.1

Flashblock 1.5.6

Shockwave Flash Plugin:
File name: libflashplayer.so - Shockwave Flash 9.0 r124
