Title:
  keyboard/mouse freeze upon visiting news.yahoo.com

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Using the standard NoScript whitelist and Firefix web browser, the
  keyboard and mouse lock up when visiting an individual news story web
  page at news.yahoo.com.  This has occured with USB mouse and PS-2
  mouse and has been recreated several times since about 7/21/11.  The
  only recourse upon lockup is to reboot the PC because there is no
  access to the Force-Quit control in the panel of Ubuntu 11.04.
