Issue
I have another kind of problem with Firefox
Description
As far as I can tell, this has only started to happen in the last couple of days. It may be related to the latest update (3.6.6), but I can't be sure it wasn't happening earlier. Anyway, the problem is this: When I start up Firefox or open a new tab, the favicon for that page displays normally on the tab bar (to the left of the page name on the tab). But if I happen to pass the cursor over the close tab button (to the right of the page name on the tab), even very briefly, the favicon disappears and is replaced by the default, blue globe icon. I should also mention that when I pass the cursor over the close tab button, the button itself seems to disapper, though it reappears when I move the cursor away. This latter phenomenon has occurred for as long as I can remember, but it only ever bothered me a very little. The newer, disappearing favicon problem is more annoying, though not yet a deal breaker.
Thanks for any insights.
