[Bug 187313] Re: right click (with button release) might activate popup-menu-item

[dougleduck]

Its nothing to do with clicking the left mouse button accidentally, not
here anyway.

The behaviour in firefox for me is this. Right clicking a link can bring
several different options, such opening new tabs, windows, (as well as
some add-ons like ad-block), and also bringing up a new thunderbird
compose mail with the link as the body of the email. Considering this is
not in my right click menu its can't be my mouse going wrong.

I have found that once it starts it will consistently do the same thing.
Left click elsewhere on the page sometimes seems to get rid of it
(though not consistently so not sure if this actually works at all). I
note that I can right click a nautilus folder while this is happening
and get normal behaviour there, and go back to firefox and find the
strange behaviour still happens.

None of the methods above for stopping it have worked for me and I have
found no way to reproduce it as yet.

System is P4, so not a 64bit problem, 512MB RAM Dell Inspiron 1100.
Haven't got compiz installed, just gnome.
