Unless you pass your days on youtube or any other flash infested site, uninstall it and all will be well.
No more 100% cpu occupation because of flash banners, no more 100% cpu for seeing ultra pixellated youtube videos.
The irony of the matter is that if you use jdownloader to download youtube videos you don't need flash, and the videos play perfectly well without choking your pc.
Adobe flash can bring your pc to a halt with whatever browser you're using.

I wasn't quite sure if it was adobe flash but Firefox is on a clean hdd recently reformatted running Windows XP and Ubuntu 9.10 dual boot. (Vista is in retirement and Windows 7 im not even going to go there) First time user of Ubuntu and loving it!
After installing Firefox 3.5 and accepting from websites ''flash is needed popups'' I was convinced flash had something to do with it as just days later firefox performance in Task manager is 87,000k and seems to slowdown at times.
Anyways to OP always go with the latest - Firefox 3.5 atm.
