    Hi,

    This problem is driving me absolutely nuts. It's happening with Firefox 3.0.1 on my ThinkPad as well as my wife's. I can't find anything about it anywhere Firefox-related, which leads me to believe that it might have to do with the way that Firefox interacts with ThinkPads in particular.

    Here's the problem: In Firefox, when I try to open the "Bookmarks" menu on the top of the screen to select a Bookmark, many times it has the effect of bookmarking the current page -- the menu doesn't open, and instead the "Page Bookmarked" dialog comes up.

    This doesn't happen every time I try to open the menu. Maybe 40% of the time. I can't for the life of me figure out why it does it certain times but not others.

    Anyone else having this problem? It's infuriating!

    Thanks!
    David
