the culprit flash.
adobe flash player cpu intensive, more power needed feed cpu, results in higher temperatures , higher fan speed(s) on mobile computers. more power used due flash, battery life of mobile computers shortened bit.
check, if adobe flash player responsible less battery time, go applications / utilities / activity monitor , select show processes , sort cpu.

there variety of flash blockers 4 major browsers available.

  • safari: clicktoflash, there extension , plug-in; ctf allows download youtube , other kinds of mpeg-4 encoded video too.
  • opera: has built-in flash blocker
  • firefox: flashblock add-on block flash
  • chrome: flashblock extension block flash
