Hi, I can reproduce this at the moment if I go to slashdot and choose the "Read
More" in the "Kathleen Fent read this story" article.

Basically, the top part of the page is rendered, but then a small black
rectangle appears at the very top.  As I move the mouse, the rectangle grows
downwards until it is below the window frame (it stays inside the mozilla window
frame).  Then after a while of moving the mouse, it disappears but the rest of
the page doesn't display.

By the way, it is directly connected to mouse movement.  If I stop moving the
mouse, the rectangle stops growing.  

Also, mozilla doesn't crash or anything, if I press the back button it goes back
to the main slashdot page without any problems.

Unfortunately this afternoon if works for me as well...I think it was one of the
ad banners.  It was consistent this morning.
