Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
After running firefox for a while, a tiny window appears at the top-left corner of the screen. xprop shows that it's related to firefox, but other than that I don't know what it does. It's only one pixel wide. It captures mouse events (they don't get passed on to nautilus) but doesn't respond to them. It seems to have no window decoration.
I don't know what triggers it but I'll try to find out. Note that you'll only see it if your panel is not placed along the top or left of the screen (mine is on the right).

Did it appear just after an upgrade ?
We have a desktop notification asking users to restart firefox when it has been upgraded.
