I don't know how to fix your problem specifically. But you know about flashing the device, yes? Or you could try installing the tear browser and using just that.

That happens because the browserd process has died.
Two possible fixes:
1 Easy: reboot the tablet
2 No so easy but not hard: open a xterm, become root, restart the browserd process with the command "/etc/init.d/tablet-browser-daemon start"
You can always check that the process is running by typing
ps ax|grep browserd

I have this problem too and the best way I've found is to restart the browser daemon.

1. Install rootsh (http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/rootsh/)
2. open xterm
3. copy paste this script
if that fails
reflash
