This happens all the time with Firefox 2.0, but it's a little more tricky to get it to happen with Minefield.
With Firefox 2.0: hovering the top Flash banner in the site given above always makes the cursor flicker (happens because of the scrolling text below it).
With Minefield: sometimes you can get the same behavior as Firefox 2, more or less randomly (depends on various factors, like lost focus, it seems). What happens everytime, however, is when your cursor is out of the banner, and you then move it over the banner. It will flicker for a split second at first (from "arrow" to "hand" pointer), then the "hand" pointer will stay.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Move your cursor over the Flash banner
Actual Results:  
Cursor flickers (can cause lag too).

Expected Results:  
No cursor flickering.

It's not a profile problem. I can reproduce this bug on any PC I am (I
didn't check on Linux, though. Will do).

Just move your cursor over the Flash banner very slowly, and you should
see it.

Yes, it still happens (with Minefield). It's subtle, though.
As you move the cursor over the banner, it quickly switches from arrow to hand, then back to arrow again, and finally to hand. It shouldn't turn back to arrow.
