I think the problem that was originally identified and that I am also experiencing is not necessarily the same as what you are describing= , although it is nice to know that the hanging problems might be gone with nspluginwrapper-devel. Usually when I kill npviewer.bin though, it is to prevent it from generating CPU load... Thanks
