This is a known problem with Firefox 1.0.x's interaction with Debian's
version of the Gnome "Simple" theme. See the Debian bug:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=257430
It's fixed in Firefox 1.5 (and the above bug report includes a
backport of the fix), but that's of little help if you want to use the
official Debian package without compiling your own.
Fortunately, there is a reasonably straightforward workaround. From
your Gnome menu, select "Applications -> Desktop Preferences ->
Themes", and pick just about any theme other than "Simple". "Crux"
and "Default" look about the same as "Simple", and if I recall
correctly neither of them exhibits the problem.
