Bookmarks, I click on a folder, up pops a submenu. As soon as I move the mouse to select an item in the submenu - poof - submenu gone. If I hold the mouse button down and drag to the submenu item (and subsub...menu.item) then let got - it works. I should be able to "click" on an bookmark, then "click" on a menu item, then "click" on ... without having to "hold" the mouse button. - I'm guessing "onmouseOver" and not "onmouseClick" somewhere.

It is working here on a Linux system. Try starting in troubleshoot mode.

OK, did troubleshoot mode. No difference and doesn't show me anything. Then I don't know what I should be looking for. Am I the only one having this problem?
