Worksforme with a current nightly build and the 0.7 release on WinXP. 

Please test again with a current nightly build from
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firebird/nightly/latest-trunk/ and a fresh
profile (see http://texturizer.net/firebird/faq.html#profilemanager on how to
create a new profile).

Please make also sure that you have no additional themes and extensions
installed. Please reopen if you are still seeing this after you performed those
given steps.
