I have seen this exact same behavior under Fedora 9. it seems the bug is
with firefox for some reason. It will happens when clicking over a link
opens firefox. If firefox is already open, it works OK. I've found no
solution yet, other than switching to opera for my browsing needs. I
have the tabmixplus extension, I thought it was related. Do you have
this extension?
Regards.
