I've found that just blocking sites in my hosts file works much better.

I'm starting to think GNU is the problem with "GNU/Linux" these days.

I still want a volume control to shut the web up. But still want to be able to listen to my music.

I skimmed the entire page with Safari 5 (cause the math content made no sense to me!) up and down several times, and reloaded a bunch of times without any issues. Obviously I haven't had it for long, but I've observed no stability problems at all. Is it possible that page is using a special font for the math symbols that may be corrupt on your system? (Wild guess) Did/do you have any Safari "enhancers" installed? Those probably aren't compatible between releases.
