Actually it can. (My dual dual core Opteron running a one of my servers
under load)

A multithreaded application (such as firefox) can eat 100% CPU -per-
core.
If you have a P4 with hyper-threading (or above), a single process can
eat 200% (or above)...
Never the less, firefox should not eat 102% CPU... were you running a
flash-something or a heavy java applet at the time?
