Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.5
Going to certain sites seems to cause FF 3.5 to hang indefinitely.
The easiest one of these to demonstrate is http://
which has a java applet that may be the source of the problem; however, several of my other users are
reporting similar issues on other sites and I cannot confirm that they have java applets.
So far, the only resolution seems to be to kill firefox from the terminal, as clicking the "x" simply causes it
to display a blank window with no options.

Thank you for reporting this to Ubuntu. Do you have Ad Block Plus installed?
