Re: npviewer processes run amok

I think this was resolved in 3.6.8.

Subject: [PC-BSD Testing] npviewer processes run amok

I noticed with Firefox (3.6.7) that many npviewer.bin processes are spawned and don't go away - each one
sucking up between 33MB and 276MB !  I have 40 of these running right now. Just Google it and you'll find
everyone is having this problem that apparently is caused by a buggy Flash player.  

This thread <http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=15749> 
(http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=15749) suggests using scripts and cron to
periodically kill these processes.

Any advice?

...Jeff
