I've always had good luck with Chromium. Do they happen to crash when you access sites with Flash? Are you using flash from the non-free repos or GNASH?

I've run into problems before where flash starts crashing browsers on squeeze, and no amount of reinstalling or browser switching seems to fix it. I've also got machines running squeeze where flash runs fine without a hitch.

I've never managed to figure out why it crashes on some, or (naturally) how to fix it. Doesn't seem to matter what browser you use, though, if it's flash that's crashing.

While visiting the link Iceweasel crashed with segmentation fault message in terminal.

While using flash following message is displayed in terminal
Gdk-WARNING **: XID collision, trouble ahead

Don't know if there's flash loading on that page (sometimes it's loaded by javascript and you can't tell from the sources), but if it's the bug I've encountered then you get a segfault. Try uninstalling flash and see if that stops the crash.
