User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.11) Gecko/2009060215 Firefox/3.0.11
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.11) Gecko/2009060215 Firefox/3.0.11

After I draged the image out side of the browser I atempted to copy it into a document. What happened was I tried to bring focus to the document editor by (super/window key) + tab and the image suddenly becomes fixed and unmovable. Renders above all the other windows even after I close firefox. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Drag Image out side of browser window
2.Press (Window/supper) key + tab (Activates Flip Effect)
3.Close Firefox 
Actual Results:  
Image is frozen and still there, hovering over all the windows on the screen. Fire fox is closed. Have to logoff to clear it. 

Expected Results:  
Image should not be there. Can not select or remove. Firefox is not running.

Well Maybe clear the image or pretend like you canceled the drag and drop. It shouldn't be pasted onto the desktop without not being able to clear the image or to move it. (Fire fox is closed and the image will only disappear when I log off).

Can you be more precise about how you drag the image and close Firefox?  Are you still holding the dragged image when you activate Flip? Do you release Flip and then close Firefox?

No reply, INCOMPLETE. Please retest with Firefox 4 or later and a new profile (http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles). Also, ensure you have the most up to date graphics drivers, operating system updates, and plugin versions (flash, java, etc). If you continue to see this issue with the newest Firefox and a new profile, then please comment on this bug.
