I am not able to reproduce this with the latest test build on Windows XP.
My guess is that the problem is caused by an add-on. Please test in safe-mode to rule out influences by add-ons.
If the problem doesn't go away, try the other suggestions listed on this page:

If nothing helps, reopen this bug and give more information, e.g. the build you're testing, URLs where the problem occurs etc. See: http://new.quality.mozilla.org/bug-writing-guidelines
