OK this bug has been annoying me for over 6 months now and I can't find a reference for it anywhere and everyone I talk to has never experienced it.
As you can see from the following screenshot [Click Here] (http://www.paladine.org.uk/images/firefox-bug.png)
It opens a page in a window called "Untitled Window". This window has no menus/buttons/url bar. Also when you try to move or minimise the window it corrupts the display (see bottom of the image). The only way to fix the problem is to close the window which in turn kills -ALL- firefox processes.
This bug occurs -frequantly- (as many as several times a day for me) and happens randomly when clicking on a link or refreshing a page already open and it is royally pi$$ing me off.
Has anyone else encountered this bug?
Does anyone know how to fix it?
Is this an Ubuntu specific bug?
Should I report this bug to Ubuntu or to Mozilla?
