André Pirard,
Yes, that's true. I find that I can't produce the bug each time. Though I can't
think of what I can do to verify that its Firefox that's the problem. (I'm just
a little over a month old in the Linux world, so I don't know what else is
behind this).
I do find that I this doesn't
Umang, you have found something great because it's an obvious bug and
because it's highly repeatable.
However, I think that the bug open here is at least slightly different.
But it well may be that if a developer analyzes your bug with this one
in mind, he may well find a reason for both and fix
I also experience this bug, and I found a way to reliably reproduce it. It
works 100% for me.
Just right click on some white space near the bottom right corner of the
screen. Your firefox window needs to be maximized. When I do this, I always
get the lowest menu item activated. BTW, it's on
Hi Joseph,
Yes you're right.
Anywhere, even on the desktop, if I right-click and slip the mouse a
little bit towards the context menu, I execute the menu-item on which I
happen to stop slipping when the mouse button is released.

I have experienced this bug also. Happens in firefox 3.0 beta 5. I
have not noticed the issue in other applications, but that may just be
because I don't have other applications which I use as much, and which I
right-click in as often.

right click on a link does strange things
I think I know what is happening. I am experiencing the same bug in
Ubuntu.
I right click a link and I get a menu, and I decide not to click
anything on that link. (i.e. I click outside the menu). Now when I right
click on a link below the one I had right clicked previously, Firefox
seems to take
I have the same bug here on my laptop. And this only happens in Firefox.
Btw, I have an other system that is an upgrade from gutsy to hardy which
does not suffer from that problem... That system is a desktop. Could it
be a touchpad problem ? Why only firefox tho ?

@Nicolo:
I think what Royce is saying is that this bug occurs *outside* firefox
as well as in firefox. I get the same thing - eg, occasionally, nautilus
chooses random options from the menu for you if you use the right-mouse
key. It's just that everyone use the right mouse key much more
I've understoon now, sorry! I will also try to use the right mouse
button more frequently outside firefox, and I'll let you know what
happens in my case.

I just experienced the problem in vinagre: I was controlling azureus on
a remote machine (which was also running Hardy), clicked the right
button, and it chose a menu option for me instead of showing the menu.
So I have so far experienced this problem in firefox, nautilus, and
vinagre (or
This bug is only for firefox, you are experiencing another bug.
I installed fedora 9 beta, and it is affected too!
Also 64 bit of ubuntu hardy is affected.
I will now test if this problem is caused by a firefox extension

Sorry I must partially take back what I said.
In a two hours Google News session, it happened five times.
Indeed that's less frequent than before, but it still happens.
Right click on a link, release, wait, and for example a Bookmark This Link
windows opens.
I still say that it happens less
I have access to 2 laptops, and both are affected! Maybe only laptops

I have found my own workaround to my incarnation of that problem (On an
overloaded computer, right-click very frequently spontaneously executes any
context menu entry at random, otherwise menu appears after seconds or even
never.):
I right-clek, that is, keeping held down until the menu
I'm wondering that myself, André.
My workaround is to /never/ use the right click menu.. always the
middle mouse button for new tab. 'course, half the time I

Nattgew: That is correct. This bug makes firefox annoying /and/ inconsistent.
I believe that once it rears its ugly head it can be replicated time
