Like I mentioned before, the only site that I experienced the error on
is news.aol.com - I did not add anything to any rules for SELinux so I
would expect your system has a badly acting plug-in as was suggested by
others. Yahoo did not seem to cause problems for me, but I do not use
yahoo or have an account for the service.

The difference for me is seamonkey used to crash. It now keeps on
logging denials. Firefox does crash on the same site as seamonkey used
to crash on.

If you temporarily change your homepage to another location and bring up
firefox or seamonkey does it crash or load successfully?

Maybe it is a bug with the browsers. I do not know, but it is not severe
on my system.

The news.aol.com site generated the below raw messages for firefox.

For seamonkey news.aol.com repeatedly produces the below.

Well going to this page with nsplugin installed causes nsplugin_t to
generate an execmem.

nsplugin seems to survive though.  So this is definitely a plugin
causing the problem.  I would bet it is flashplugin.

Hard to tell if anything is different on this page.

I have flash-plugin-9.0.48.0-release.i386 installed. The Disney website works for the kids without the plug-in wrapper. I checked if nspluginwrapper was installed on my system and it wasn't. I now have it installed nspluginwrapper.i386 0:0.9.91.5-21.fc9.

Thanks, I'll try the site for effect with the wrapper installed.
