into view.

A superfluous green bar appears behind the link's text, and some additional text
is superimposed over the original text, causing illegible text.

It should have just displayed an underline under the link's text.

I'm using the latest realease (0.91), with the "Noia 2.0 Extreme" theme

Note:  Just tested with default theme, and the problem reproduces there, as well.

You're saying you're using 0.91, but build identifier says Firefox/0.8.

Anyway, before it's closed because of that, I'm confirming this with
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040624
Firefox/0.9.0+

Funny glitch.

Yes, I noticed that.  It's funny... when I go to Help-->About, it shows the 
version number as being 0.91, but then the build identifier below that 
shows "0.8".  No clue why that is!

In any case, I'm glad to see you were able to reproduce it in your setup, as 
well.

OT: This is because you didnt uninstall 0.8 before installing 0.9

I see this as well, confirming.

This WFM with latest trunk build. Broken in AVIARY. Duping to Bug 237766.

Please reopen this if you can reproduce it with a nightly TRUNK build.
