I recently downloaded the iStat Pro plug in and came across this information pertaining to the intel core duo processors :Important flaw on Core Duo Processors ¶

Some of the users of SpeedIt reported a bug related to the readout of the temperature, we have been tested the digital readout and we discovered that the problem is related to a bug in the microprocessor.

The bug is documented by Intel and happend only in some processors and is the following:

AE18 Processor Digital Thermal Sensor (DTS) Readout stops updating upon returning from C3/C4 state. (Source Intel Corp.)

If this is your case, we recomend to go to Apple to verify your computer, because in case of thermal problems the processor will never get protected.
The link to this information is here:http://speedit.increw.org/
