Build ID: 1999061708 Platform: Windows NT To reproduce: - Launch apprunner - Load http://schist/marmot6.html - this page contains the following HTML: <body background="mariside.gif"> - In the URL control, type http://theonion.com - Note that parts of the Onion have the background from marmot6.html in them. Apparently the problem is that the Onion is taking incredibly long to render correctly - it can take a very long time for the background from marmot6.html to disappear and be replaced by the green background specified by the Onion.

An even simpler demonstration of this is had by going to the page, and then moving back to the bug report. You'll see the form controls draw in first, and then the background. This is a fundamental design problem with the compositor which images everything separately in its own piece of an offscreen buffer, rather than imaging once in a single large enough buffer and doing a single blit.
With the latest NECKO build 1999080408 on Win98, this problem seems to no longer occur.
