I got the same problem with a fresh install of Natty on a Dell 1525N
notebook, for instance when I watch a flash video within Firefox.

I can read in the syslog:
"Aug  8 22:36:21 Inspiron-1525 kernel: [12219.014818] Critical temperature 
reached (99 C), shutting down."

I think that the user should at least be informed of the problem by a
message or notification just before the shutt down, because he has no
way to guess the cause of the crash.
