This will cause problem on some translation software, such as StarDict, which monitor selection to see the user action changes. All gtk2 widget will clear the selection when it is unselected, so I hope firefox can follow this strategy too. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

This bug was originally reported on Firefox 2.x or older, which is no longer supported and will not be receiving any more updates. I strongly suggest that you update to Firefox 3.6.6 or later, update your plugins (flash, adobe, etc.), and retest in a new profile. If you still see the issue with the updated Firefox, please post here. Otherwise, please close as RESOLVED > WORKSFORME http://www.mozilla.com http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+mode
