Probably caused by caret browsing in combination with some extension.
If you don't use caret browsing, turn it off. Tools > Options > Advanced > Accessibility > Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages (or press F7).

I confirm this behaviour for final release of Firefox 2.0 (Linux version).

Problem is really caused when "caret browsing" enabled in browser's setup. No matters if some extensions are installed.

This unwanted behaviour is reproducible only sometimes (about 10-20% of mouse clicks after previous scrolling). This is quite annoying, especially for new Firefox users.

On my opinion this "caret browsing" feature should move to current caret position only when cursor keys are being pressed, not when mouse click events occur.
