KGet, CPU and temperature

Using Hardy 8.04.2 on a Dell laptop.

Just a note that I have several times noted that KGet can raise the CPU 
temperature to dangerous levels EVEN WHEN no download or activity is 
taking place. I just noted it again, shut down KGet (that was just 
residing in tasktray) and the CPU temperature has gone down 20 Celsius.

Don't ask me why, I have not analysed it or filed a bug or even asked 
some list or developer why - I have just noted the phenomena several times.
