i get this issue with vanilla install of alpha4 +apt-get update

bbc iplayer

install missing codecs - chose adobe (NO INFO TO CHOOSE BETWEEN THE THREE CHOICES)

npviewer takes 99% CPU and hangs FF

I had this same problem with flash + flashblock in FF.
I could reproduce it on a certain site.
I noticed there was an update for flashblock, after installing it I could no longer reproduce the crash.

I just had the same crash again (signal 5 in _XError()) but can not reproduce it...

I started a new firefox profile without flashblock installed and I'm
still seeing this intermittently.

I use the NoScript FF extension and see this problem occasionally, FF does not hang or do anything strange though..

I encounter this bug regularly. I use CoolPreviews, DownThemAll!, Flashblock, Foxmarks Bookmark Synchronizer, PDF Download and Ubuntu Firefox Modifications 0.7b1. However, I think that none of these is responsible or in connection with the bug.

I use Opera, without flash. This error appeared once I started surf the Internet.

I experienced this using Konqueror, whilst visiting some flash-heavy websites (64bit build on 64bit PC). It froze (but didn't crash) Konqueror.

Almost same as previous post. Im using Google Chrome, in 10.04 Alpha 3.... 64 bit. I was on some flash heavy soccer website and it was trying to load some video and hung the web browser up.
