FireFox mouse-over notifications stick when scrolling w/ mouse wheel.

[047M34L]

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Ubuntu 9.10

firefox:
  Installed: 3.0.12+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu2

I have a 'Microsoft Wireless Notebook Laser Mouse 6000,' it has two buttons and a wheel. I use the wheel to navigate web pages in FF(3.0.12). When I am browsing, say, ubuntuforums.org, I will mouse-over a link to read the first few lines of a thread. If I then scroll up or down with the wheel while the notification box is still up, it stays open, even if another preview is shown.

is not an issue with ffox 3.5 here ... try to use shiretoko (install firefox-3.5 package)
