When I was upgrading from Firefox 2, I was told that several extensions were not compatible with Firefox 3. The extensions were presented in a list, and the list was long enough to create a scrollbars. At the bottom of the list, there appeared to be a blank line that I could scroll to. However, the window would also scroll automatically back up. If I held down the down arrow on the scroll bar, this created a flickering effect, where I would be scrolling to the blank line, but the program would scroll it up. Imagine that repeated several times per second really fast.

Reproducible: Didn't try

I couldn't try to reproduce it because I finished the upgrade and am no longer presented with that window. Sorry.

I'm running the OSX 10.5.2 on a PPC G4.
