I'm using flashgot and download helper, plugins for firefox, to download
some vid's (flv's). I've browsed away from the videos and firefox is
just at no-javascript gmail, but the cpu is still pegged. top shows:

However, I'm hesitant to kill totem. Is it involved in the download
somehow? The downloads are rather large and I'm not so keen to have the
CPU pegged for hours on end...
thanks,
