There is a known problem with Entourage that after a complex HTML message is
displayed, the CPU % will peg at near 100% when in the foreground, but drop
to next to nothing when in the background.  The only things you can do to
stop it is quit and re-launch or switch to say a news server and then back
to a local folder.
