[Bug 606280] [NEW] Firefox hangs on launch

[dennis allison]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Firefox hangs when launched--the frame and an initial tab is displayed
but the tab never gets populated.  Launching Chrome or other browser
works fine.  It is likely that the problem is an unresponsive URL
accessed in the launch process, but there seems no easy way to discover
what that URL is.
