Trouble with older PowerBook G4
I am having lots of trouble with my 4-5 year old PowerBook G4 running extremely slow. I did a complete restore to try to fix the issue and still no change. In the activity monitor, my CPU usage is constantly at 100% regardless of if I'm doing anything.
CPU usage:
% user- about 100%
% system- between 0-5%
% nice- 0%
% idle- 0%
System memory:
Free- ~190 MB
Wired- ~80 MB
Active- ~225 MB
Inactive- ~15 MB
VM size- 27.8 GB (this seems a little high, but maybe not)
I am running 10.5.6 with a G4 1.67 Ghz and 512MB Ram.
Any help would be appreciated.

Also, I did go to adobe's website and made sure i have the most up to date flash player so that's not the issue.
Even viewing a webpage with a Flash advert can send the CPU to 100%
Adobe Flash on the Mac simply sucks!
Try ClickToFlash
It will let you decide what Flash elements to load on a given page.
