Right; that is, nspluginviewer is started in Konqueror-with-disabled-plugins
as well. It does not consume noticeable amounts of CPU, though, and as long as
it doesn't actually run the plug-ins, that's hardly a bug.
Accordingly, I am making the CPU consumption the main point of this bug.
FWIW, this doesn't happen on akregator which I compiled from KDE trunk (that
is, nspluginviewer is started, but no high CPU load).
Thanks,
Shai.
