I can't see the problem.
What version are you using?

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10

Hmm, my user agent string is not included in the report, this time.
Anyway, here it is:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a4) Gecko/20040925
Firefox/0.9.1+
You'll see this happening in 1.8a builds. It happens because focus outlines now
cause a reflow. This was introduced some time ago in trunk builds. I don't know
the bug number right now. For similar bugs, see also bug 261196, which is
depending on this bug.
