Does it also occur in Safe Mode ? I see the DownloadThemAll add-on in the video. http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode

Because this issue isn't always occurs and I can't find out the exact reproduce steps. Today I have some work to do. Maybe tomorrow, I'll use Firefox in Safe Mode.

I don't understand, how the mouse cursor affect the Firefox? I know a little about Windows Message Loop, but I don't understand how this issue occurs. Is it the XUL's bug or is the Javascript Engine's bug? Anyway, hope you fix this bug. Thank you!
Now my OS is Windows Vista x64, and I've been using Firefox 3.6 in Windows Vista over 3 months. It is strange that I never met this bug in this period. I doubt this bug is relate to the Graphic Card(ATI Mobility Radeon x1300) of my laptop or the Graphic Card Driver. Because my Graphic Card seems has some problem. In Windows Vista, if I use AMD-ATI's driver, it(Graphic Card or the driver) will cause Vista BSOD when I unplug the laptop's AC power line and plug it in back. This also happens in Windows 7. But if I use Windows Vista and it's built-in driver, everything is fine. So I doubt this bug is relate to the Graphic Card. Is it possible a Graphic Card hardware bug or driver bug make Firefox like that? Why?
Probably (?) duplicate of: Bug 627084 - UI becomes sluggish/does not redraw/repaint unless mouse is moved after long browsing sessions Bug 634163 - browser will not load pages or page content unless mouse cursor constantly moving.
The demo video is not accessible any more. OP didn't had this issue after changing OS and/or hardware.
