Description Peter 2009-03-25 02:08:15 UTC 
On my iGoogle homepage I have a current moon phase applet which displays a graphic of the current phase of the moon. Even when the flash isn't enabled (a big grey box with a play button in it) if the applet is visible on the screen it sends the CPU on one core to 100%. This doesn't just happen on this flash but on most/all of them even though most of the sites I don't even have the flash autoplay enabled at it just shows a grey play button where the flash should be.
