IceCat freezes on pages with flash, if one does not use Figues's workaround:
"set dom.ipc.plugins.enabled to false".
Please, do not do the following, without having a backup of the .gnuzilla
folder (explanation below).
To reproduce the freezing, set dom.ipc.plugins.enabled to true, as it comes by
default, and try to open simultaneously this set of pages:
http://www.lemonde.fr/
https://www.nytimes.com/
http://www.folha.uol.com.br/
http://www.aol.com/
http://www.uol.com.br/
http://m.br.yahoo.com/
Actually, just http://www.folha.uol.com.br, as an example, makes it freeze by
several minutes. But with those, I could not wait forever...
Any other page with flash would serve to the purpose, I wonder.
Worse yet, if you did not do a backup of the .gnuzilla folder, your addons,
settings, bookmarks, etc will risk to be lost, because IceCat will not load
anymore (not always, but happend twice with me, fortunately, I have backups,
backups, ...). Trying in a terminal, the message errors iare similar to the
ones in the first mail of Figue.

I have not noticed that, sorry.
