[Bug 635023] Re: firefox plugin-container using 99% CPU - overheating and lock-up

 

It would be nice if somebody having this problem were to send the bug
upstream to the Mozilla developers as well.  If you have done so, please
tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a
bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

Title:
  firefox plugin-container using 99% CPU - overheating and lock-up

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  Firefox version 3.6.9

  Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu

  Firefox plugin-container is using almost all of the CPU, which is running hot at full speed even though I'm not using any programs except Firefox, and even when I'm not doing any work.
