Per comment 1 and 2, why is this a TE bug and not, say, a bug in Mac Firefox or the OS itself?

Comment 4

[noah d]

there are flash (.swf) elements near the top of the page that flash when reloading. the other person might have perceived that as the background flashing.

Can someone please answer my question in comment 3?

Chris, lets bump this back to the product. Maybe plugins?

Based on comment 1, it sounds like INVALID, but Firefox is almost certainly a better home for it than TE, yeah.
