I also have this problem in recent versions of Firefox. I never experienced it in Firefox 2.
It may be related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+bug/216699 though I do not necessarily see any particular message in the status bar when this happens. This bug is nearly show-stopping for my use of Firefox and I've been falling back on Epiphany recently which does not appear to exhibit the issue. -- graying window in Firefox 3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226546 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
