Sounds like a JavaScript error to me.
As you are certainly aware, HeaderTabs switched from using YUI to
jQuery between MW 1.16 and 1.17. Naturally, the 1.16 code is not
maintained with the highest priority. Now that 1.18 is out, you migt
consider updating your MW installation. But of course you considered
all this already and there are imperative reasons to keep 1.16, so
here goes... :-)

Things you might try to find the cause of the problem:
* Change skin
* Disable other JavaScript-heavy extensions
* see the browser's JS error log (Ctrl-Shift-J in Firefox)
* if it's a public wiki, tell us where to find it

Cheers,
Stephan
