Thank you. That seems to have solved it.

Thank you for reporting this to Ubuntu. As kolya found, this issue is most likely related to the update in Firefox that now runs certain plugin processes outside of the browser in order to prevent plugins from crashing the entire browser. Can you please go into "about:config" and toggle "dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.libflashplayer.so" to "false" and see if that resolves the issue? If it does, then this is a duplicate of bug 513887.

I expected to be able to browse the Internet, view YouTube videos, listen to music on Pandora, but the browser screen fades to a black and white image and freezes. This is occurring on two different systems; one is an HP Paviliion running Ubuntu 10.04 with an AMD processor, the other is a vanilla system running Ubuntu 9.10 with an Intel processor.
