(In reply to comment #2) > WFM, Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050509 Firefox/1.0+ OK, I got it: it occurs only when AdBlock extension is enabled.

As a "bonus", when the bug has occured, I cannot close the window from the File/Quit option, I have to click on the right upper corner. In my opinion, there are some exploitable flaws in there and they are just a little highlighted by this bug.
(In reply to comment #3) > OK, I got it: it occurs only when AdBlock extension is enabled. Please report the bug to the AdBlock developers. ->INVALID p.s. If you can demonstrate the "exploitable flaws" with extensions disabled then please reopen the bug.
