i'm seeing this with already loaded pages as well.  if i go to gamespy.com, then
minimize firebird and bring it back up, the scroll wheel no longer works.  if i
switch to another tab, the scroll wheel works there, if i switch back to
gamespy, it stops working.

firebird 0.6.1 final on win2k, new profile, no extensions.
