this happens to me too, but I believe is not hang up, but it freezes for a long time.
In my case: 1. I choose (highlighted) some text to move 2. I tried to drag the selected text to the next blank line. The cursor changed to show I had selected text, but the selected text did not move. Only the mouse can move but no answer to any click. Then after like 10 seconds (it depends how far I've tried to drag the selection) the text gets drag, and then after more seconds (maybe 10 or 20 more, that's why it gives the feeling of hanged), finally it comes back to normal and I can click again etc. I'm using Kubuntu Intrepid but it also happened on my firefox on Kubuntu 08.04 (with KDe4) The package right now is: 3.0.3+nobinonly-0ubuntu2 is this KDE4 related?
