Main window of Firefox is not responsive for moments. Cannot go to adresses even if other browsers can.(ok connection) There is a Firefox "ghost" small window like (vertical thin line) that is managed by the OS as a window, can be minimized or zoomed, but dont have responsive menus when selected. When this window is selected it can be draged but cannot get any info about it. Is this a bug or a spy window?
I have snapshots of it.

Reproducible: Didn't try
Does it work if you start Firefox in Safe Mode? (it temporarily disables
plugins and extensions, this test will help narrow down the cause of the
problem)

After this I had force quite the Firefox browser, not responsive, and the master password got corrupted.

Never experienced that ghost window again, but dont like the fact that after reseting the old password and seting a new master password that worked one time but became corrupted again. Dodgy business with master password. I do manage my bank certificates, suposed to be secure.
Reporter, do you still see this problem with the latest Firefox 2? If not, can you please close this bug as WORKSFORME. Thanks!
