Norman, does the crash occur if you start Firefox in "safe mode"?

You shouldn't need to re-install or reboot.

I doubt we have a problem with CNN.com in general since it's a top100 site
and there are no dupes here. It's not possible to triage this bug further
without the cooperation from the Reporter (which do not respond).
