hi,

i have *the same* problem here (Power Mac G4/400, 1GByte RAM, Radeon 
9000 Pro Mac Edition) running 2.0_BETA and -- a few days (5?) ago, 
-current. firefox and mozilla (okay, if it didn't were this way, one 
should be surprised ;) with that behaviour.

no solution yet (exept: have a MOSX machine handy and run the browser 
remotely ;)
