Comparison sites. When using click throughs to visit third party pages, Firefox 4 will not load and shows "1x1.gif" in the tab??? Wasn't a problem in previous versions. I use Windows 7. Explorer works fine.

Frequently happening on click throughs. Too many sites to mentione, but today it happened on thisismoney.com. Pick a comparison of credit cards and click through to apply. Pages will not load and the 1x1 giff appeares in the tab?? Dont like the drop down box top right hand corner the slightest mouse move creates alamost a strobe effect of options!!
