>The problem was caused by MS Silverlight (SL), includin the current versions of FF and SL.
>SL sets the thread priority to "Above Normal," and FF can't handle it - it thrashes the CPU.
>If there is a way for FF to detect its thread priority and keep it at "normal" that would probably fix the problem.
>However, the problem is caused by SL, not FF, Flash or Google Maps.
>It's just that those heavy plug-ins/apps seem to run wild with the higher thread priority.
