Yes, I see it all the time. I attribute it to tooltips, since by default
one pops up if I leave the mouse sitting somewhere for one second. Have
you tried turning them off completely, to see what happens?
I know, there are no tooltips for URLs, but the same behavior occurs for
various objects that *do* have tooltips (like the "Close" button for
windows, or "Check New Mail" and such) so I feel it's related. For some
reason, I find myself learning a lot of keyboard shortcuts. :-p
