Anyone else experiencing this?
No. I have Facebook open in Seamonkey right now. CPU usage for Seamonkey oscillates between 0 and 2%. This is a three-and-half years old computer running Windows 7 -- good machine but hardly bleeding-edge. It might have something to do with the fact that I'm very, very, VERY picky regarding Facebook apps -- Facebook apps are provided by third parties, and not only they are an humongous privacy issue, but many of them are probably badly written. My standard response to anybody inviting me to a game, "birthday alert" or anything like that is to block the app so I never see the invitation again. I have currently two Facebook apps active -- and about thirty blocked ones. You might wish to check your Facebook Settings to see if you have too many apps. Perhaps one of them is the culprit. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm. Unauthorized use will be prosecuted under the DMCA. -=-=- ...
