For those of you who like to check out new things, be warned.

The new Adobe flash9 for Linux Beta works great for most sites, but
there is a serious bug.

Don't access the following site unless you are prepared for a system restart!

 http://www.cnettv.com/

The problem is solid across multiple Firefox/Distro releases (I'm on
Kubuto 6.10 Firefox 2.0, FCn with Firefox 1.5.x.x gets similar
results). Accessing this site locks the browser AND the window manager
tight. CTL-ALT-Fn and kill everything or CTL-ALT-DEL is required.
