I have an odd problem with is sort of difficult to really explain, in Firefox
(either 1.5 or 2.0 RC 2 and 3, when I either open up the browser to the homepage, or with the majority of browsing, the contents of the website will sort of shake or bounce up and down. Typically I would associate this type of behaviour with spyware however it has occured with 3 clean installs of firefox, and IE 7 works just fine, and this was almost right after a fresh install of Vista RC2 Build 5744. All builds of Firefox worked splendid in a Win XP SP2 environment but for some reason I cant get any of them to not display this odd shaking. The weirdest part of all, is this only happened when I did a clean installation of Vista When I did an upgrade from XP To Vista (which I later formatted) it was working fine. Anyone have any clues as to where to look to find a solution, tried searching around with no luck unfortunately. |

It is from an empty toolbar "Bookmarks"
Go to View-Toolbars and unselect Bookmarks or Add a link to the bookmarks menu "ShoeHornOPlenty" wrote: > I have an odd problem with is sort of difficult to really explain, in Firefox > (either 1.5 or 2.0 RC 2 and 3, when I either open up the browser to the > homepage, or with the majority of browsing, the contents of the website will > sort of shake or bounce up and down.

If you close the bookmarks toolbar, it will probably show back up again the
next time you open Firefox. I also experienced this behavior on Vista, but I haven't so far on 5744.
