Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I think I found a bug, a really funny one. Try to go to this site: http://blogs.gnome.org/cosimoc/2008/06/02/hello-planet/ and place your mouse pointer like in this screen: http://img223.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=14782_bugff_122_260lo.jpg (the GREEN DOT) You should see the words "Nicolas Trangez" blinking, well stop the pointer right there.Cpu goes crazy! Is it just me? I haven't tried on other site.

Edit:
Ubuntu 8.04
Firefox 3.0 RC1

Have you tried to disable your extensions in Tools -> Addons?

I tried on windows xp(different PC) with the same version of Firefox (Firefox 3 RC1 stand-alone version, so no addon, nothing.)It's a bug of firefox, where can I submit to mozilla's team?

extensions are not installed in the application, but in your
profile. to go tools -> addons and assure that there is no extension
installed.

Yes, it's still an issue. I think it's firefox related(now I'm running on 3.0.11)

I can not reproduce this with an up to date Ubuntu 9.10. Is this still an issue for you?
