This is a little confusing to explain.

To resize the window of Firefox, I click on the edges until my cursor looks like <--->.

Usually, I would drag-and-drop to the size I want, let go of my click, and be happy.

In Firefox, about 30-50% of the time, I let go of my click, but the mouse stays as <--->.

Next time I click inside or outside Firefox, the window resizes to there, which is incredibly annoying.

How do fix? I can't even post a screenshot because it automatically gets rid of the cursor.
