I've seen various combinations of flash-replacements, browsers and hackery (nspluginwrapper comes to mind) do similar things - send a machine haywire and sometimes even lock it up solid. But in each case it's been a new commit to the tree, many more than 1 user was affected and we heard about it here almost right away. That isn't the case this time. Woth checking, I just don't hold out much hope it's anything other than flash itself (especially given it's track record). -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
