Hi all,

After reading the browser straw poll, I was influenced to try some of the
plug-ins listed. I installed: Adblock Plus 1.2.1, FlagFox 4.0.8, Flashblock
1.5.13, FlashGot 1.2, Leo Search 1.0.0, NoScript 1.9.8.69, and Readability
1.1. Some of these I installed with aptitude and the ones that weren't I
installed through firefox/the mozilla website.

Since doing so I've begun to have, for the very first time, stability
problems with iceweasel on testing when watching flash videos on youtube.
Generally, my browser will, some time during the playing of the video,
before, or after it finishes, become frozen such that I can't click any of
the buttons or close it.

I then do "ps -auwx | grep iceweasel" and get:
stuc...@debian:~$ ps -auwx | grep iceweasel
Warning: bad ps syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'? See

I have to assume that this is due to one of the plugins I installed. Does
anyone have any input? A lot of those are really cool and I would hate to
have to give one up -- especially the Leo search one (though I wish there
was a Langenscheidts plug-in that did something similar).

ciao
