[e-mail] -- 1.0.0 is an old version of mozilla, and therefore I am
marking this bug INVALID.  Please try again with a newer version of mozilla such
as 1.2a: if this problem still appears, please re-open this bug and provide
additional information:

* Was your cursor inside an input element such as a textbox or TEXTAREA?
* Is there a specific page that will reproduce this problem consistently?

[e-mail] reports the following in a private email:

I have a suspicion which that causes the problem. I use a programmable keyboard
from Alps (Alps Humedia Keyboard). It is possibly an incompatibility. This
incompatibility is probably the reason of this problem. I already use the newest
aviable driver for my keyboard.

I asked that he contact ALPS about the issue.
