Default FireFox 3 Using 4 Cores at max?
When I am listening to my music using foobar, I began loading my project page and Firefox 3 started using all 4 cores at max and music started lagging and so did the whole computer. Anyone know why this is so?

Those are pretty big pictures, also it could just be a bug with the new FireFox.

No problems loading it, or noticed any lag what so ever, using the system in my sig.
