A couple of hundred processes like this:/usr/local/bin/php /usr/local/etc/rc.newwanipv6 pppoe0 force
"killall -9 php" made the system responsive again for a short while but the processes kept piling up.

It only happens in recent versions of Firefox on Mint.That's because the first two can benefit from it and the other two don't and never will do anything towards such abuse unlike all those spyware creators in this weird world of ours...
