I got several replies. Here's a summary of what worked or didn't.

I installed adblock plus, but it didn't solve the problem. CPU use dropped only slightly, but adblock killed all the pictures and the icons at the top of the page (but only some of the flash!!) so YNET was not really usable.

I was told once its the scrolling news > thingy they use which eats the CPU. I don't think that's true. After installing flash blocker, the scrolling news was also gone. Clicking on the location it usually appears re-enabled the scrolling news and CPU use only went up about 2%.

As I mentioned above, the flash blocker did reduce CPU use, but my box is an AMD 4200 dual core. A few flash windows should not have any real impact on the CPU. In fact, with 10 - 15 tabs open (and many of them use flash), I get about 2% (or less) CPU usage. Opening YNET jumps that to 140% (as I wrote earlier - over 70% on each core). That really makes no sense. -- Shlomo Solomon http://the-solomons.net Sent by KMail 1.9.9 (KDE 3.5.9) on LINUX Mandriva 2008.1 ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
