Flash Player slows down CSS and DOM animations

Greetings again,

Following symptom happens only in Vista (both 64 and 32 bits) IE8 Beta 2.

Using Flash animations (SWF) in same screen with other DOM and CSS animations makes browser inresponsive. This does not happen in Firefox, Opera etc. on very same Vistas and does not happen in IE6 on a Windows XP machine or IE7 in Vista

Here is an example: http://www.chip.com.tr

Don't mind the language of site, here is the thing: Menus such as BÖLÜMLER, DOWNLOAD etc. on top, right of the logo OR blue icons again right of the logo, normally works very well without problems. However, when advertisements are loaded (which are flash based), IE on Vista turn into very slow responsiveness values when you mouse over these icons and menus. I tried to change just flashes load without javascript need, result did not change

By design, is there some error or is this classified as bug?

    Hi friend,
    I would suggest you uninstall the IE 8 and then restart the comp and then again install it. I do not feel it is a bug. There might me a system error. So try this us and let us know.

    No slowing down on page given on menu transitions and are you on Vista?

    Edit: Just tried it. Removed entire IE8 and reinstalled IE8 again. Problem continues on this page. It makes you feel like CPU hit top but it is not. Using IE8 Beta 2, Flash Player 9,0,124, Vista Ultimate 64-bit SP1
