I'm using Windows 7 pro SP1 Seamonkey 2.32.1 Shockwave Flash 32_16_0_0_305 Certain pages seem to take a lot of memory. I've seen Flash Player up above 2.5GB. Seamonkey goes to around 500MB. Closing the pages I suspect to be causing the trouble makes the memory usage go way down. It seems to occur when there are ads that look like gifs, ie they just repeat over and over. I usually see messages in the message area that say things like "Waiting for .....". I don't want to block the ads. A good site to see this problem is www.fark.com, although it's not the only one. It doesn't always happen. Ads that are unchanging, which I suspect are either jpegs or pngs, don't seem to cause the problem. My version of Explorer doesn't seem to have the same problems although it has popped up some message about scripts being disabled and it sometimes leaves the advertising area on www.fark.com blank, so maybe it's detecting something. The memory usage slows down Seamonkey's response time making for a less than pleasant browsing experience. TIA for any suggestions.
