flash ads appear on the left side when typing in text box on tomshardware.com

0. make sure you have a working flash plugin (that works with mozilla)
1. goto http://www.tomshardware.com/
2. right click on the ads to see if any of them are "flash based" ads
3. if there are none, reload the page until you find at least one
4. click on a textbox on the page ( I find that the price grabbing one on the
left is the best for this test)
5. press and hold down the spacebar

current result:

see flash ad appear on the left side of the page.

expected result:

no extra ad, one is enough.
confirming with build 2001100903 on Win2k.
The duplicate flash ads also appear while resizing the browser window
horizontally. If you resize the window so that an ad is clipped (best seen with
the ad on the right), the displaced flash is clipped similarly.
2001100708 trunk win98
I am seeing the flash jump to the left, but then it goes back to where it should
be. So, I am seeing an anoying flicker, but no duplication of the flash
animation, and certainly nothing like the 'simulated screenshot' attachment
(what is that anyway?)
I'm guessing, but I think this is a problem with the way that the plugin's
widget is moved during a reflow. We reposition the plugin, but since it draws
itself, we end up drawing it in the intermediate location. Of course, we shoudl
not be moving it in this case anyway, and furthermore, we should probably try to
find a way supress the updates to the plugin's window during repositioning...

I'll take this one. 

Could someone attach a minimal testcase? Also, does anyone know if this happens
on Mac?

Does not happen in Fizilla or Mac classic
Just to clarify fwiw... the flickering is what I see too, and it wouldn't get
into a screenshot, so the attachment is an illustration of what it looks like,
give or take a few px
Note that the attachment I just posted is a real screenshot not doctored in any
way. I was pressing down on the spacebar while a screenshot triggered by timer
was taken. Note that the top ad is a GIF image not a flash ad. This was with
build 2001100903 win32 trunk btw.
Build 2001101308

I just saw, on the same page with no flash ads at all, a gif image that "jumped"
to the left when I enter stuff into a textbox. Maybe this has nothing to do with
flash or is it another bug?
still happens with no plugins involved....over to HTMLFrames which I think is
handled by evaughan now.

Hi, I don't know whether to start a new bug or put this in here....so I will put
it in here (you guys always seem to just reject my bugs anyway)... I am using
Mozilla 1.3a Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3a)
Gecko/20021123 and when I go to tomshardware.com I get a memory cannot be read
error and mozilla dies.  I have not found any other sites that do this yet and
the previous version did not have this problem.  Whats interesting is that the
"reduced test case from site" above also causes my mozilla to die with the same
error.

Repeatability: every time.
Steps:

1) type www.tomshardware.com into the url bar
2) press enter
3) wait.

alternatively

1) Click the "reduced test case from site" link above.
Dave: what version of flash do you have?
