OK, got one:
It's [link|http://messages.yahoo.com/?action=q&board=SCOX|Yahoo / SCOX]. Once I go there I get 100% CPU usage for about 3 to 4 seconds every 15 seconds. To stop it I have to exit FireFox and restart it.
Anybody else see this?

Maybe something to do with Java too.
Mozilla/W2k often acts weird for me if the Java Console (1.4.x that can't be unloaded while the browser is running) is loaded. It sounds similar to what's hitting AG.
Andrew: Does it happen if you use Privoxy or another proxy that blocks Java applets?
Cheers,
Scott.

Well, if that ain't just somethin . . .
Firefox had marked the bookmarks file I'd copied from the most recent Mozilla "hidden", and had gone ahead and made numbered bookmark files up to bookmarks-6817.html! No wonder I was low on disk space, they took up a Gig and a quarter.
I made a new install of Firefox and it did the same thing. Marked bookmarks hidden and started making numbered ones. I unhid it and copied the highest numbered one to bookmarks.html and this activity seems to have stopped, as has the 100% CPU problem.
Weird enough.

Nope, as soon as I mucked around a bit . . .
. . . at one of these troublesom sites, hidden bookmarks file and numbered bookmark files. The CPU problem apparently doesn't show up until you have a whole lot of numbered bookmarks.

OK, I unhid bookmarks and cleaned up again . .
. . and now I can't get it to hide the bookmarks and make numbered copies no matter how hard I try. Sheeeeeeeeeesh. Well I'll keep watching it.

Especially if the bookmarks file IS your homepage. (Andrew?)
