Works for me with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041021
Firefox/1.0

Did you install any extensions which expand the context-menu options? If yes,
this is probably a duplicate of bug 245163.

This may indeed be related to bug 245163, but it may not be a duplicate.  I do
have some extensions installed which does lengthen the context menu.  However,
when I right click a link on this bugzilla page, the context menu >always< opens
>down< from the mouse postion.  However, whenever I right click >any< link on
the referenced ebookmall website, the context menu >always< opens >UP<.  Page
coding conflicts?  And if so, why doesn't Mozilla deal with it...?

also FYI, >NO< scroll bars or up/down arrows appear on my context submenu.
