100% CPU Usage Caused By Adobe Flash Plugin
So i've been dealing with 100% CPU usage for the last 3 weeks. I've narrowed down the cause to the Flash plugin for ANY browser, regardless of IE or Firefox. *Here's the deal:* Anytime Flash is loaded in the browser, the CPU shoot straight up to 100% until you close the browser. I've google'd solutions for this. The only one I've seen is the all FULL CONTROL for the Everyone user on two of the Flash drives. This does not work. So I tried something else. I reformatted and started from scratch. As soon as the Flash plugin was installed, BOOM, right to 100% CPU usage again. This happened on both Vista x64 Ultimate w/ SP2 and a clean install of Windows 7 x64 Ultimate RTM (It's a legal copy.) *My desktop is a P4 3.2ghz with 3GB ram on a 80GB WD 10,000rpm sata drive. Plenty of power.* *_Now_here's_a_weird_sidenote:_* I have a company laptop with Windows XP x86 w/ SP2. Flash works fine. Both computers are on the same version. The latest as of today from Adobe.com. Obviously the only difference besides OSes is I'm using 64-bit Vista/Win7 on the desktop. But because there is no 64-bit flash, only 32 bit, they are using the same version. Ok, thoughts? Suggestions? *_I've_ruled_out:_* 1. Virus/Spyware/Malware 2. Other processes running (i tried when I did a clean install with nothing installed) -- xwhizx

100% CPU Usage Caused By Adobe Flash Plugin
I'm hoping that a 64-bit version of Flash will solve the program, but they currently only have one for Linux. v10 is a CPU usage hog, and I can't find what part of the v10 is causing the problems. v9 is less problems, but still the CPU usage issue. -- xwhizx
