Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

This is very buggy. This time I was allowed to post. There seems to be a
problem with the tools-clear private data which does not clear cache and
has no reaction with history that no longer compiles. All bookmarks have
vanished. Impossible to make new bookmarks from small pop up window
option. While viewing a Chinese URL (56.com?) the browser just closed. I
am no longer able to view any streamed video on youtube. RhythumBox
still is acting up with some programed radio stations RE Universidad de
Puerto Rico(http://www.radiouniversidad.pr/hifi.m3u), although it is
working now.

I am not sure about packages but this is what I have found in Synaptic
Package Manager:

firefox       3.0.5  nobinonly-0ubuntu0-8.10.1

ubunfox  0.6-0ubuntu1

I hope this is useful. If you need further help with information please
contact the email which I will be checking.  I had planned on removing
Ubuntu 9.04 which now refuses to reboot as well as Ubuntu Ibex 8.10
which is now getting to be really unpredictable and disfunctional. I
have made a optical disk of Hardy Herron and would like  to install that
but am not sure as to how to proceed. I tried to do a live session with
it and it did work with one exception. I only gave me an option pf
screen resolution of 800x600 instead of the original 1200x800 which at
one timed worked with Ubuntu 8.10 but suddenly vanished after running an
update.

While still searching for packages I preformed a search for repository indexes with the following result??:
two indexes are not fetched:

cdrom: [Ubuntu 8.10_Intrepid Ibex_Release i386
(20081029)/dist/Intrepid/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz

cdrom:Ûbuntu 8.10_Interpid Ibex_Release i386
(20081029)/dist/Intrepid/restricted/binary-i386/Packages.gz

Please use apt-cdrom to make this CD ROM recognized by APT. apt-get
update cannot be used to add new CD ROMs.

I don't understand what the above means so if you could enlighten me on this, I would be very pleased.
Finally I will not mark this as a security vulnerability as I am not qualified to judge, however the instability of all these problems is very troubling.
Thanks in advance for your attention to these matters.
