I have js blocked using FF2

Loaded fine, no advisories.
There are scripts from three different sources that I'm allowing 
individually to see if I can spot it:
- news.com.au - no problem, but allowing put through a fourth source: 
tiser.com.au
- imrworldwide.com - no problem
- roo.com - allowed the video player feed to load, was a long wait 
for ad.doubleclick.com to load and added a script from macromedia.com

- tiser.com.au - no problem, tracked to the roo.com load after allowed.
- macromedia.com - no problem.

The problem could lie anywhere, but may be the doubleclick slowness.

uh-oh. I opened the Telstra page and it crashed firefox!  That hardly 
ever happens. It froze on loading something from ths.news.com.au . 
The error signature is:
ModName: npswf32.dll . I tried to copy the error report, but that was 
too large in the window. I have saved the error report file if anyone 
wants to see it.

When I reloaded FF, the page was viewable with no crashing.
