I opened a page on YouTube on my mining machine last night because I didn't want to go get my laptop, and I accidentally left the page open after I finished watching the video. Literally cut my hashrate in half and I didn't notice until this morning Sad f12u7

mining is using about 97% of your gpu, video's require x%(definitely greater than 3%). If it doesn't freeze your computer first, then yes, you will notice a drop in hashes per second.

Help Bitcoins by buying clothes, technology, books, etc. through people/stores that accept BTC. This will increase overall value of BTC as well as mitigate unnecessary bank transaction fees.

That's only hardware accelerated applications, like Flash. I running MPC on my main computer with a 5850, and Mh/s only drop by 2 or 3.
