Not only did you find it but you listed the steps verbatim in your post without proper attribution. This is in rather bad form. Your statement about Firefox CPU usage and lack of stability is completely unfounded. By reading your article that you to attempted to link to in your comment, you state that: "The Firefox process CPU usage keeps varying between 2-3% and 6-7%." This amount of CPU usage is excellent for Firefox or any other piece of software during use so I don't understand your complaint. Proper attribution and research are required before you make any blanket statements about any piece of software. Sudhir,
