When I go to Amazon.com, the graphic at the top of their homepage ("College 101") gets pixilated and then Firefox freezes up completely. I can't click on any other open tab, nor can I click on any other Mac application. I can only restart the computer. As soon as I go to Amazon again, the same thing happens all over again. Please help me as I need to use Amazon frequently and it is currently impossible to do so. Thanks!

I forgot to add that I cleared all of the cookies and refreshed Firefox, but it didn't help the problem.
