Firefox's npviewer.bin is a common culprit, here.  I've seen it grab
and hang onto more than 90% of CPU in both linux and WinXP, even when
no Flash is being played at the time. This only happens after playing
a series of youtube vids, though.

The top cmd run in a root shell, or KDE system monitor will show all
processes.
