You can easily debug this problem by disabling flash. Go to the
/usr/lib/firefox.2.0.0.1x/plugins or /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
directory, rename or move libflashplayer.so, restart Firefox, type
"about:plugins" in the location bar to verify flash is disabled, and
go to si.com to see if your problem goes away.
