[Bug 11567] Re: Firefox segfaults when opening some webpages

[Meghan Anne McGill]

I too am getting lots and lots of crashes when using firefox. 
the example  above
>firefox http://phpdoc.org/tutorial.php
works for me, but 
firefox http://www.cnn.com 
always crashes instantly (with a segmentation fault as well)

I'm using firefox -versions 3.6.3 Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical -
1.0

I've already tried removing the  
 sudo apt-get purge moonlight-plugin-core moonlight-plugin-mozilla (posted elsewhere as a fix) 
but since it wasn't installed it couldn't be removed,so that wasn't the issue.
firefox itself reported a conflict with the "flashblock" package so I un-installed it and still get the error.
I'm using the shockwave flash package, which works great before lucid (on heron).  
I don't want to start randomly trying new packages, so am waiting for some kind of fix.
