I never have any problems as long as I run 32 bit firefox with no
nspluginwrapper. I know I'm supposed to be able to run 32 bit
firefox on my 64 bit system, but I can't ever seem to get that
working the way it is "supposed" to work, however if I run a script
which sets all LD_LIBRARY_PATH stuff to point to my 32 bit
boot partition, that does seem to work. The nspluginwrapper
is a separate problem - I keep running into random flash apps
which send the wrapper into 100% cpu loops (though I can't say
UI've ever seen that on cnn videos).
Firefox is one of the things I never understood why any distros
bother to ship a 64 bit version. I can't imagine there are any
48 gigabyte web pages you might need a 64 bit browser to display
and as long as all the plugins people actually need seem to only
come in 32 bit versions, a 64 bit browser is a bit of a pain
(on the other hand, I use it most of the time because I don't
want flash working :-).

It works fine here Frank. But only on FF2.0.0.16, FF3 still needs some tlc IMO.
One of the things I did long ago was in self defense since an upgrade of the
browser always destroyed your plugins and you had to go out on the net and
hunt them down again.
And all of the browsers have had their plugins subdir nuked and softlinked
to this one. Note that is NOT the ICED TEA crippled java either.
>Youtube works fine, though; never a glitch.
Yup, works fine here too.

Update:
Yesterday I uninstalled mozplugger and nspluginwrapper thinking they
might be the culprit. That didn't help.
Today I uninstalled completely java-openjdk-plugin and made Firefox use
Sun's Java plugin (libjavaplugin_oji.so) by creating the link in mozilla/
plugins (no alternatives).
Now CNN works beautifully (knock on wood)! Another site I was having
troubles with http://www.dbfx.com also works. It displays a table with
currency prices in real time, which I wasn't able to view previously. The
only site that I care about that I'm still having problems with is http://
www.citicards.com. The fault may be with the page itself (like made for IE
or something).
I imagine others who reported problems with flash are already using Sun
Java, and still have those problems. Uninstalling mozplugger and/or
nspluginwrapper on top of using Sun Java may or may not make a difference.
