should have written earlier:
I found the problem to be related to flash. It only happens with
flashplugin-nonfree.. at least in that extent. So I switched to
gnash and haven't tried anymore.
Maybe this bug can be closed or reassigned. But as we don't
have a working flash plugin for amd64 in contrib currently
I can't try again.

Patrick
