[Bug 837836] Re: User login crashes when firefox visits given site

 

The bug doesn't happen every time, but once it happens once it will keep
happening each time I re-login -- at least until the computer reboots.
Firefox profiles make no difference.

I think this is likely to be a flash, graphics card, or wireless card
bug -- or else defective hardware. My computer tends to hang randomly
during other (non-firefox) tasks, especially if I'm using Unity.
