User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

Running Windows XP SP2 and whenever I return from a screensaver to continue my
session, the CPU stays >90% on the firefox process until it crashes.

A restart fixes it until the next time the screensaver comes on.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open FF
2.Leave for screensaver to activate
3.Press a key to return to windows
4.Click on FF window
5.Observe high CPU and crash through taskman
Actual Results:  
FF's CPU share sped above 90% until it crashed.

Expected Results:  
Stayed within normal CPU (usually <5%)

Default Theme

Numerous Talkbacks have been sent but I dont have the IDs (is there a local log
i can check?)
The talkback program is found in the components directory of the firefox
installation directory. Run it and post some of the ID's here.
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050813
Firefox/1.0+ ID:2005081303

Works for me.
Ok, ran the program,
TB8282857Q is the most recent one and definitely one that was affected, some
others that are mainly crashing due to this but with a couple of others mixed in
are TB8135315K, TB8042022X, TB7990525K, TB7925352H, TB7805764K, TB7805641K,
TB7802707Q, TB7759324H    in case that is useful, sorry about that.
