I experience the same problem both on latest Ubuntu and Debian Squeeze.
I'm working on the latter now. The Firefox is downloaded from Firefox'
homepage, my pc architecture is x86, GPU: nvidia with latest drivers
from nvidia's homepage (190) and uname is as follows: Linux debian
2.6.30-2-486 i686 GNU/Linux.

I've noticed, that the problem is caused by adverts. When I install
adblock + flashblock, pages, that caused the havoc in my system, stop
being nasty. I can reproduce it easly on http://www.linuxquestions.org/
without and with adblock on.

So it looks like it's a weak cpu issue. I can't tell if there was a
problem on my last Ubuntu 9.04, because I was browsing with adblock all
the time.
