Bug Description

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

Ubuntu 8.04.1 amd64
flashplugin-nonfree 9.0.124.0ubuntu2

After a bit of browsing with Firefox, it begins to stutter (freeze for a second).
Even switching windows by clicking on tabs at the bar at the bottom of desktop is very slow.

I notice the process npviewer.bin is consuming 100% of a CPU core (I have 4, Core2 Q6600).
