Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mozilla-browser

Open browser Firefox
Visit the cnn.com homepage by entering url www.cnn.com
Ubuntu freezes completely. The system writes nothing to it's log files 
(messages.log, kernel.log, etc).
You cannot use the keyboard anymore (e.q. to switch to another TTY by pressing 
CTRL-ALT F1).
Sometimes nothing bad happens and cnn.com will be show correctly.
I cannot precisely tell when it happens. It seems randomly to happen.
