Bug Description

When I have http://www.hoopsworld.com open in Firefox, I get constant cpu spikes. This prevents my cpu from throttling, eventually causing my laptop's thermal sensor to shutdown the machine. This problem started immediately after upgrading from Edgy to Feisty. I have tried with a clean profile and still have the problem. This is 32bit install of Feisty.

Did you also have the flash plugin under edgy?

There are about 2-3 always working embedded flash objects on that page. If I remove them using adblock the cpu usage of firefox goes down to 0.
