I have the same problem as Mr. Fourney above, using Ubuntu Gutsy and Firefox. I have an ATI graphics card and am using the ATI drivers. My problem is exactly the same as decribed above, the CPU overloads constantly when using Firefox and also causes the fan to kick in. I tried using Epiphany but the problem is still the same. This problem is so annoying that I am now using Arch Linux with Firefox without any problems. In the past I also tried Debian Etch and Lenny without any problems (using Icewease). It does not also seem to happen with Open Suse 10.3 Beta version.
Any suggested fix to this will be very helpful.
