My computer was fine a few days ago; every once in a while it'd say the plugin-container crashed, but that wasn't a major inconvenience. Then all of a sudden, plugin-container was eating up about 90% of the cpu usage. The same problem happened when I tried chrome and internet explorer. Since that didn't work, I toggled the dom.ipc things that was suggested be toggled to turn off plugin-container, but that didn't seem to do much, so I reverted back to 3.5, but it still was eating up about 90% regardless of if plugin-container was there. If it isn't there, then the task manager says that firefox is the one to be eating up the 90%. Is there any way to fix this?
