Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

I've got a consistant problem on my dell Laptop with windows XP.
When I scroll down, mouse dissapears from the screen and computer hangs.
This happened many times, but I was able to consistently reproduce the problem
on the site above.
No metter if the scrolling is done with keyboard or a mouse.
This problem didn't happen on my other win 2000 computers.

Initial behavior: while scrolling, all objects on the screen freeze, but mouse
can be moved around (keyboard doesn't respond anymore). Then in about 10 seconds
the mouse is also gone, during those 10 seconds the mouse can be moved around
the screen, but cann't click on anything. 

I've reinstalled firefox 3 times, nothing helped.

I don't know what a new profile means.
I've installed the latest release (1.0) imported all bookmarks from ie.
And started to use FireFox. first couple of days the tool crushed once a day.
But when I got to the site above, FireFox started to hang computer consistently.
