When in a website (facebook, dx.com...) using the scroll in the mouse, the page blinks and shakes. It is not an hardware issue for sure (bad mouse wheel...) because only happens here and it was in a change of a firefox update.
It is confusing because it seems that is blinking between old and new (scroll and non-scroll) web page, and only activates with the scrolling, so far I didn't notice with pulling side bar up and down, only with mouse wheel. It happens time to time.
Started in one of the new updates, at max 2 updates ago.
PS: Just happened in this page of report. goes up and down very quickly (1 or 2px up and down), like shivering, and then stops.
