The only non-essential peripheral it has is an external hard-drive. If it's a USB HDD turn it off when you're not using it. USB HDD controllers sometimes lock up, e.g. after a couple of days, and some MOBOs don't like misbehaving USB devices. When I say non-essential I mean everything USB

I should have noted that I have tried that. Also of note is that this is happening on more than one computer. Most secure sites are working just fine. Firefox 29.0 did not have this problem at all. There must be a recent change that triggered this.

After searching for the output message, I found that you're using a third-party application called Webmin, which I don't know. According some reports, it looks that the problem is with this program, and not within the browser. http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php?topic=122704.0

I ran across this as well. I suppose that it could be webmin, but something has changed in abrowser. Version 29 worked fine and still does. 30 is the issue. I would just go back to 29 but eventually whatever is causing this should be known or dealt with. If it's a bug we can have it fixed.
