Be careful when googling with the official builds (non-XFT builds)!!!
Some SERP's might crash the X-server!!!

See bugs:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=121403
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=244340
http://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=659

But you can compile it yourself with XFT enabled.
This tut has worked for me very well:

Takes about 1.5 hours to compile on my 1.4GHz machine.

Cheers,
Hannes.
