I upgraded Firefox on Monday from 1.5.something to 2.0. Today I noticed that I’m not seeing the first part of the OP when I mouseover thread titles any more. I don’t know if this is new today, or if it was happening the last couple of days as well. I assume this is related to the upgrade.

Has anyone else noticed this, or is it just me?

I just upgraded to it last night, and I see no difference; mouse over still works just fine.

My mouseover died a few weeks ago when I replaced Norton with AVG.

Upgraded to FF 2.0 at work – no problem with mouseover.

at home I’m still at 1.5, but I _do_ have AVG (and I, too, installed it to replace Norton), and I haven’t seen any problems with mouseover there either – but I’m not at home right now so I can’t actually comfirm this 100%

I upgraded to 2.0 both at work and home yesterday, and the mouseovers still work fine for me in both places.

OK, I guess it’s just me. Probably a problem with one of my extensions. I’ll upgrade my home PC this weekend and try to nail down the culprit.

Thanks for the info.
