Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find a hyperlink
2. Scroll the window so it goes to the bottom left
3. Hover on the link
Actual Results:  
The box containing the link blinks repeatedly

Expected Results:  
The box should jump to the right, getting outta the pointer's way

When hovering over a link, the "box" is displayed on the opposite side of the page.
