    Yes, that's right for some unknow to me reason, Firefox is continuasly bouncing when I use it, even right now the whole screen is flickering up and down quickly, have you any idea, what the problem is?

    This only started happening today,
    I recently installes winosx, but it had worked fine since.

    Hi KrankStricher
    I had the same problem
    I found that after I up-dated my flash plug-in
    all was ok.

    Never heard of flash being the cause/solution but from my knowledge this happens because you changed the Windows theme (which isn't really meant to be) and Firefox's UI expects the WinXP Luna skin to be present. Not all msstyle themes are affected by this some dont have this problem and some do.

    The jumping effect you see can be fixed by a few ways;
    1) Go back to the WinXP luna skin
    2) Use a different Firefox skin (a bunch of Aqua/brushed metal ones can be gotten on the Firefox skin site)
    3) Place a bookmark the the "Toolbar Folder" in your bookmarks
    4) Use a different WinXP skin if your after an Apple Aqua look try KoL's Tiger skin. He knows of this Firefox quirk so most of his skins do not have this issue.
