Mozilla Corporation - Home of the Firefox web browser and Thunderbird email clientFirefox 1.5 has been running pretty well on my work Fedora Core 4 machine up until the last four or five days. I'm not sure if it was due to the various Firefox plugins I was using ( I've heard that Fasterfox had some memory issues ) but I had to remove Firefox 1.5 from my work machine today. Firefox would suddenly start using up to 98% of the CPU and stick there until I killed it. I might try again with no extensions and see if the problem crops up again.
