The random menu open may be caused because of a wrong pointer to a memory 
address cell.
I am always up for a good ranting flame but I will stick myself up to the "too 
long bug report" comment.
An interesting issue has been indicated though: the effect happens because the 
behaviour (open menu option) is associated with the event OnMouseClick instead 
of OnMouseRelease (in Delphi). This may be causing the former, so an idea to 
solve the bug is to download Firefox 3 source code, open it on the Eclipse 
Integrated Development Environment or whatever Object-Oriented IDE of your 
choice, get to the subroutine associated with the bug, and browse for events 
associated to the equivalent to OnMouseClick in whatever programming language 
it is written in. Switch the event to the correct one (equivalent to 
OnMoseRelease), recompile, install, run and cross fingers.
- It it works, notify here, there (the firefox developers team) and everywhere.
- If it doesn't, observe the new behaviour and comment here and there, maybe 
perform a few more tests to gather more info.
