[OT]: YouTube causing system lockups

In the fallout of my failed HDD a few weeks ago I installed PCLinuxOS
and have started giving KDE a bit of a try.

All's well and good so far but as of yesterday I'm having some trouble
with YouTube.  It was working fine but now - all of a sudden like - it
regularly causing my entire machine to lock up.  I can't change to
virtual terminals (1-4) or even shutdown X (Ctrl-Alt-Backspace).

Any ideas what might be causing this behavior?  I've heard that Google
may have been working on something at YouTube yesterday around
18:00PDT but I don't know what they were up to or if there's any
relation.

TIA,
- Scott.
