Is "disable common annoyances" checked in Options / Content?

Weird.
Disable common annoyances is unchecked.

How about the about:config pref dom.disable_window_status_change?

If that doesn't fix it, have you tried a new profile (with "disable common
annoyances" unchecked)?

If that doesn't fix it, have you tried an official mozilla.org build?

dom.disable_window_status_change was set to true.
Is it defaut setting ?
Now,it is ok.
