[Bug 815984] [NEW] keyboard/mouse freeze upon visiting news.yahoo.com

[Raleigh Daniel Stout]

Public bug reported:

Using the standard NoScript whitelist and Firefix web browser, the
keyboard and mouse lock up when visiting an individual news story web
page at news.yahoo.com.  This has occured with USB mouse and PS-2 mouse
and has been recreated several times since about 7/21/11.  The only
recourse upon lockup is to reboot the PC because there is no access to
the Force-Quit control in the panel of Ubuntu 11.04.
