Whenever I click on the button on the Firefox toolbar and then start scrolling down, as soon as I want to go into a folder or press a button the drop down menu flickers out and then I have to go back to the toolbar and start again.

Any future answerer please keep in mind that I am talking about the browser itself, not a web site.

I have the latest version of Firefox for Mac and this only started happening a few days ago. Pleas help.
