First, and most important: please do not report bugs in old builds: 0.10.1 is
actually 20040913 with one bugfix, so it's rapidly approaching three months old.
The "nothing more than two weeks old" that the bug reporting form tells you is a
bit extreme, but 0.10.1 is too old.

Second: in Tools - Options - Web features - JavaScript Advanced, please uncheck
"Move or resize existing windows", and then only reopen if you find a particular
page which can still change the window size.

The Firefox final version 1 has more (new) bugs than the version 1 PR that's why
I still use the version 1 PR (Preview Release).

Much of this new bugs I have allready reported them.
