Sounds like it got fried, however, check one more think as well.

If you are running KDE, check inside your /home/<user> folder for a file
called .xsession-errors. This beast will sometimes grow to gigs in size. I
think it is a buffer overrun in Mozilla, because everytime mine grows to a
gig in size, I open it to see it full of Mozilla messages. It will
interfere (when it grows to this size), not only with Mozilla, but
everything else on your system.

As stated, follow RF's advise, it sounds like JB X was hosed, but you might
want to check this file as well.
