User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.2) Gecko/2008091620 Firefox/3.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.2) Gecko/2008091620 Firefox/3.0.2

for the last few versions of Firefox, the pronounce button/link on wikitionary.org kills/freezes all firefox windows when it's clicked. The site seems to suggest that the button/link is to an Ogg Vorbis file.
Internet Explorer works fine. Though, it does pop up the bar saying that the web site wants to run the add on: VLC media player, maybe just because ogg files are associated with VLC on my system, but it still plays the recording back even if I don't click the bar to allow that to run.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to: wiktionary.org
2. look up a word
3. go to the bottom of the screen where there is a button to hear the pronunciation of the word and click that button/link
Actual Results:  
Firefox will immediately freeze all of it's windows and the program must be forceably canceled.

Expected Results:  
Audio plays from the site.

Wiktionary.org changed their control, but it's still OGG. In any case, it's working fine now.
