Ok, i have quit firefox and restarted it, and i can now go to other sites

but I still have that security updates process running, seemingly stalled
And I still see intermittent jumps in firefox %cpu   to 10-15% range.

here is current
[root@f10 ~]# ps ax |grep -i firef
 8024 ?        SN     1:05 /usr/bin/python

how can i tell if this update is finished or stalled or whatever?

I have never before seen this seemingly stalled response to doing
security updates.

Sam's   advice was to not kill the python-- yum process.
What other options do I have?

Thanks for help
Jack
