Woke up this a.m. to find OSX had quit again. It seems to happen every night now. I don't have any backups running then. I do set the computer to sleep after about 1/2 hr. I did forget to restart it in safemode when I went to bed. Right now, with only mail running the CPU is running between 5% and 16% if I'm not typing.

Paula -- do the open pages in Camino have Flash ads? Can you install a
Flash blocker? Does that make a difference?

Yes, two of them have flash ads.  I'll see if Safari can turn those off.

Interestingly, Macworld weekly email newsletter just came in with an article on tracking down processor hogs. It didn't tell me anything new tho...and nothing to indicate why I keep shutting down. Even my Windows machine didn't blue screen this often!

I'll keep working on this tho.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!" Have a wonderful day!
