Steps to reproduce:

1. Use my normal profile. It has ABP installed.
1.5 Enable retain-dl from about:config. Restart firefox.
2. Go to the ABP options page
3. Select some text and/or move mouse around the page


Actual results:

Text and other elements randomly disappear/flash


Expected results:

not so.

This does not happen on a fresh profile, so I am not sure whats wrong with my normal profile.

Which version of adblock plus is this? I can't get an options page that looks anything like the one from the video.

OK, I figured out how to repro this 100% :

You have to enable this option : "Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages" from about:preferences.

Then this bug will repro.
