E.g. on this submission page there is cliveeb Inbox Other Apps where logically you'd expect the handtool to materialise when hovering over these areas. Nothing happens which means I cannot select those "buttons/drop downs".

That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar or the Babylon extension that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links and buttons in that part of the screen not clickable.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
