A lot of times, when i close the flash intense web sites, my fans won't stop running until i go into activity monitor and force quit flash. this is very irritating and kills my battery life. i feel like im constantly playing the sims 3 even if im not doing anything. anyone else have a similar problem or a fix? also, are there varying levels of how much flash you're using? for example, if you're on youtube is that just as bad as being on macrumors and looking at flash based ad banners? if so, that's my issue right there.
