Over the last few weeks iceweasel has started to operate strangely. The whole application stops whilst trying to open a web page. you can't switch tabs. Sometimes it gets SO BAD that the entire desktop locks for a while.Am I the only person experiencing this.I suspect it has something to do with Javascript or Flash - Slashdot is a good candidate to cause this to happen - although it often appears from the status bar at the bottom that it is trying to fetch some advert info.
I found the "hangs" as I call them annoying and left iceweasel for google-chrome-beta which does not have the problem.
