I have a rather large forum that I own, and today I got an email from my webhost saying that my forum was using alot of CPU processing time. They pinpointed a few IP addresses and said they put up firewalls. What I am wondering is:
What uses CPU processing times on a website and what can I do to try and lighten the load, so to say?

Requests for pages or content on your website use CPU (Processor) time.
Your hosting provider probably added firewall rules to block IP addresses for some IPs that are spamming your blog, or are trying to use it to send SPAM. You can check to see if you are using the latest version of the software your blog runs on to see if any new security patches have been released to prevent the spamming issue.

Ask your web hosting company for advice, it's their CPU's that are being affected.
