It crashed/froze worse than the FF browser does. I dont know if this has anything to do with it, but the VM keeps loosing the Internet wi-fi connection, when trying to view the vids, something I just found out. Could that be a cause for the browsers to crash/freeze? It doesnt loose the connection at all in Windows.
