Firefox had my System crash/hang on loading of the URL:

http://www.lkb.ens.fr/recherche/qedcav/english/welcome.html

My whole Gnome-Desktop froze.
No <ctrl>-<alt>-<F1-6> to change to virtual Terminals,
No <ctrl>-<alt>-<backspace>  to restart X.
Still had mousecursor movement and occasional HD-LED blinks.

This happened while surfing along and again after rebooting and recovering my session via Tabmixplus' Crash recovery.

Sorry for not testing again.

Do you have any Talkback IDs? (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Talkback)
It Turns out that my system was unstable because of some graphicsdriver issue.
