Today I accepted the Ubuntu Firefox updates.  Firefox became unstable, for 
instance google.com doesn't resolve and gives this message:

ASSERT: *** Search: _installLocation: engine has no file!

I've looked at /usr/me/.mozilla/pluginreg.dat and only one line mentions
flash:

cat pluginreg.dat | grep flash
/usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so:$

Some sites resolve, like mail.yahoo.com.  Being a novice I lack the
background to determine whether this is the same problem mentioned above
since adobe isn't mentioned or involved and I've not manually loaded
anything other than through Synaptic.  I'm with Reuben Firmin, Ubuntu
should not break stuph when update notices are accepted.

Any workaround in my case?
