Try killing Seamonkey/nspluginwrapper ie, shutdown then try.

What is your running kernel? Newest.  Asking because it may be that your
problem is machine independent as a client of mine on a Compaq had the
same problem 6 months ago.  Fix it I just removed the new kernel so it
use the prior one.  One kernel showed the problem and one did not.
