>Description:
For some time the firefox-bin has caused the whole system to freeze, when clicking a link on a web page while the system load is at 100%. I noticed this when I was compiling some packages on the background while surfing.
This problem has been there for a while. I have updated the OS and the firefox-bin since I first noticed the bug, and the problem still exists.
