Doesn't look familiar. Which OS version are you using? Given the PID number it looks like a low level system function. It has something to do with the window manager. Maybe from Google Desktop Earth 3D. By the way, when you block out the user name in the main window you might want to block out the name in the process information window too. Your user name shows up... It would be helpful to know what open files and ports there are for that process.

QuoteXULRunner is a runtime environment developed by the Mozilla Foundation to provide a common back-end for XUL applications. It replaced the Gecko Runtime Environment, a stalled project with a similar purpose.[1]

The first stable developer preview of XULRunner was released in February 2006, based on the Mozilla 1.8 code base, and alpha versions based on Mozilla 1.9 were released in 2007. The most recent releases of XULRunner are in the 1.9.2 branch, using the most recent Gecko engine, and are built from the same source code snapshot as Firefox 3.6.

Interesting. Just seems like a lot of CPU resources being used by it.   :undecided:  About to leave for work. Shall quit Firefox and see what gives.
