I can reproduce this and I'm using Firefox all day. First try this:

- Firefox's safe-mode to exclude extension/theme problems
- a new profile
- a reinstall in a new empty folder
- updating your plugins

If this doesn't help it could be caused by another program on your computer.

This is a mass search for bugs that are in the Firefox General component, are
UNCO, and have not been changed for 800 days and have an unspecified version. 

Reporter, can you please update to Firefox 3.6.10, create a fresh profile,
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/managing+profiles, and test again. If you
still see the bug, please update this bug. If the issue is gone, please set the
resolution to RESOLVED > WORKSFORME.
