Thank you for the bug report. Could you please try to obtain a backtrace by following the instructions on [WWW] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs, or upload (as an attachment) the crash report from /var/crash/.

Also, please answer these questions:
Is this crash reproducible? If so, which are the steps that lead to it?
Which flash package do you have installed?
Which Java package do you have installed?
Which firefox extensions do you have installed?

This will greatly aid us in tracking down your problem.

This happens every time I run firefox and visit that website, regardless of how I launch it, or when I do it.

There is nothing in /var/crash to upload.
It is reproducible in epiphany, so it's most likely a gecko bug.
I have not tried this on different hardware yet.

I believe I have the icedtea-gcjwebplugin package installed, and flashplugin-nonfree for flash, both at the latest versions.
I have firebug and adblock plus installed.
