Well, what do you know... Following the above suggestions, I
uninstalled flashplayer-mozilla, and since Miniclip stopped working, I
googled a bit and found the "Debian" way of installing Flash Player --
namely, through backports, as opposed to installing it directly from
the Adobe website. And now I've got my Miniclip working smoothly again
-- only this time, there's no npviewer.bin to hog my CPU!!
Thanx, Ron and Brian, for the suggestions that got me thinking in the
right direction!
