    Something should be done about that ad. I also have a mac pro and the same thing happens. It causes my computer to lock up, overheat, and beach ball.

    I couldn't see what my temp was, but the CPU usage shot up very high with that banner ad. I'm using windows xp, and some type of AMD dual core.

  7. Seems like if the ad is "out of sight" the CPU load goes to normal..

  9. 14% load is normal for internet browsing, but that AD is abmormal.


    My computer CPU does not get to 70% even while running video convertation or SETI computations..
