Last 24/48 hours firefox has been pegged at 25% CPU load on sites like Gmail and other non-intensive stuff. Though I look at the task manager and it'd dump somewhere between 90Meg and 250 Meg into ram, then bounce all over the map with cpu cycles. This even with AV disabled.
Running AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 955

Seagate 750s for scratch and crap

I've seen this as well.
Also, my block pop-up windows option won't stay checked. I open browser check it and it's unchecked (will only stay checked during a session, if I close firefox and reopen it's unchecked again).

I think some plugin's got installed and were causing issues - so I pretty much blanked them all. Behavior seems to be better. Check your plugins under the addons tab under tools - u might've installed something you didn't know about when another program attached itself.

Simple, Microsoft silently installs a .net assistant plugin to firefox which makes it vulnerable to activex attacks.
Disable it.

Wow. Didn't even notice it. What a difference. They shouldn't be able to do that...
