Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I have the default BBC "Latest Headlines" live bookmark sitting on my toolbar next to 'Smart Bookmarks'. The BBC feed usually contains more entries than Firefox can display vertically on my laptop. In this case, Firefox provides two arrows which I use to scroll the feed. The problem is that sometimes Firefox scrolls the feed automatically even when I don't want it to. I have attached a video of this in action.

The problem occurs regardless of whether I use metacity or compiz.
