I am using - Firefox 3.6.13 on different machines (Mac OS X 10.6.5 and 10.6.6) - Firebug 1.6.2

The problem I have is reproducable this way: Make an HTML-File with the content

<html>
<head>
<title>Test-Case</title>
</head>
<body>
<img src="not_here.png" />
</body>
</html>

Save the file, upload it to your webspace and open/activate Firebug->Console->All. Request the HTML-document via http://, not file://

In the lower right corner, you will see "1 Error" displayed in red. The Console will show one entry, "NetworkError 404 ..." Click on the blue file name on the right ("not_here.png"). Click on the red "1 Error" again, to return to the complete console entry list.

Error: the pointer will grab the firefox-window.

The people at fbug think it's a firefox bug, see http://code.google.com/p/fbug/issues/detail?id=3875
