Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Some websites work (twitter.com), others don't (google.com, mozilla.com).

Exception for mozilla.com:

It started happening with today's firefox security update for ubuntu jaunty.
Interestingly, it seems to work on my other computer (64bit, otherwise same system etc).
