Just go on demonstrate URL, and try to click on blue triangle in bottom right corner. In my case, when Firefox3 is in normal full window size and no scrollbars there, scrollbars suddenly appears by pressing the blue triangle and others.

The blue trianlge in code is:
<a href="#" class="styleswitcher_d" onclick="setStyle('styl3')"></a>

The CSS style:
.styleswitcher_d {
	width: 45px;
	height: 45px;
	position: absolute;
	background-image: url(../images/green_swapd.png);
	background-repeat: no-repeat;
	bottom: 0px;
	right: 0px;
}

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Just click on any triangle.
2. Scrollbars appear.
3. No special setup, Firefox3 in normal full window size.
Actual Results:  
Scrollbars appear.

Expected Results:  
Dont show scrollbars.

Especially blue triangle: when user click on it, the link is not done, becase his mouse is suddenly on scrollbar - so the link doesnt work.
