cursor problem on web sites
When i hover the mouse cursor on e.g. the reputation bars under each persons icon on this site, the "information box" which details the persons reputation appears for a split second then disappears. The same sort of thing happens on all sites. This is using windows 7 64 bit and Firefox 20.0.1. i have no such problem with another laptop running Vista. Anybody know what problem could be ?

Thanks

You could be right. i'll google some local witchdoctors to see if they can lift the curse.

Re: cursor problem on web sites
Is there a setting for how long message balloons open perhaps?

I did look Taf but couldn't find anything along those lines. I disabled all addons in Firefox and everything worked fine so i'll have to try enabling them one by one to find the culprit.

Re: cursor problem on web sites
I've updated to 23.0.1 and problem persists. Looks like for the short term i'll either have to live with it or run in "addons disabled mode". Thanks for all the input everyone
