I had to disable Firebug just recently because it was causing Firefox to hang with very high CPU usage. Now I wonder if it could have been related to this. Perhaps some malicious script used Firebug to go digging around in my computer. Quite scary.

@James – I noticed the same problem on my machine. It’s probably best to enable Firebug only for the sites you are developing/testing.

@James the new version (1.05) seems to be a little bit smarter (less CPU usage), but it still slow down…
