I found that the hang was not only for Firefox but it was also for other
windows (Opening home directory too).
Here is what I did to get it work in my laptop:
* While logging-in for the first time, choose GNOME's safe mode.
* Logout
* Login again but __not__ in GNOME's safe mode (normal mode). After
this, I can open any window.

You can try upgrading the firefox after a fresh installation, as they
rolled out 3.5.4 after base system 3.5.3
In one of the
attempts, instead of opening Firefox, I tried by removing it
just after
installing OS, again system hanged.
You can try going to
Single user mode to un-install (command: sudo init1)
or
Non GUI mode with short cut CRTL + ALT + F1
Or Avoid Firefox from system and Download tar.gz firefox from mozilla
website and use it.
Hopefully u will have problem solved.
I found the same issue on booting from Live CD.
MD5 checksum was also verified.
9.04 is running without issues in this laptop. I am using 9.04
since
September.
