151357 - Mozilla consumes 100% CPU resources while displaying this page, cursor moves very slowly over page, sometimes Mozilla becomes unresponsive

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 132759

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[Manoj]

Build:2002061108
Reproducible: always

I will attach a locally saved file (from the mail.yahoo.com exit page) that
causes Mozilla to use up ~100% CPU and makes mouse motion very slow and the
browser quite unresponsive. This is not a singular case, every page that has an
advertisement similar to the one on the yahoo mail signout page causes problems
with mozilla. This seems to work great with IE, no performance hits at all. This
could be a problem with the ad, but I checked with NS4.x and there seems to be
no problem there either. 

The problem disappears when I navigate away from the page, my guess therefore
being that the problem is caused by the advertisement.
