Dear all We have previously discussed FF hanging with flash. FWIW I came across a discussion about npviewer.bin in Firefox at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=647961. I had noticed that my CPU was going 100% all the time so I had a look and this binary was active betweeen 0 and 100% with FF most of the rest. It may be a problem only with 64 bit computing as it is (was in 2007) a 32 bit programme for flash. Interestingly I wasn't using FF at the time. The forum suggested (for ubuntu users) sudo pkill npviewer.bin. Actually I deleted some of the pages I was holding and this worked a treat.
