I'm running XP with FF 3.6.3 and I experience this every day all day.
It's very frustrating.

One thing to note is that it doesn't happen when I open some websites
from the GMarks menu.  Normally, if I open the GMarks menu and click
on a bookmark the bookmark will open and then this issue appears
(can't open GMarks menu).  However, some websites (like http://www.ocoee.org/)
open and this issue does not appear (I can open the GMarks menu
fine).  This is 100% reproducible on these web sites.

Hope this helps!


Jim
