I am not sure that "crash" is a good term here but I could do nothing with the computer at all. The computer seemed as if it were working overtime using all available memory but apparently doing nothing with it. Pressing control/alt/del did nothing. I soft booted using the reset button on my tower. I tried going to icebergradio again and the same thing happened.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Started firefox
2.entered www.icebergradio.com
3.chose classic rock station

Actual Results:

Expected Results:

Does this happen using an official mozilla.com build or only using the Ubuntu distributed version? When trying that, please try with a new profile.

Also, if you can still reproduce this crash, can you provide a Talkback ID?
