Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I've just upgraded to jaunty (firefox 3.0.5+nobinonly-0ubuntu1), and I'm noticing something annoying in firefox:

When I move my mouse pointer over a link (or move around within a link's space), the mouse cursor jumps to the "link" cursor, and immediately returns to the normal arrow pointer. Moving around within the link's bounding box will re-flicker the cursor for every pixel (or so). The link itself also flickers into/out of "hover" mode during this.

This even happens when I start firefox with -safe-mode.
