Gray box of Google Reader doom.

I get a strange gray box in Google Reader whenever I am using it. I don't know what is causing it, but sometimes I can highlight the text behind it so I can read and it sometimes it scrolls at a different rate than the rest of the window. It looks like it is caused by Java though I could be way off. I am using Firefox 2.0.0.12 on OS X 10.5.2. I took a screenshot of it to show what it looks like and I am wondering if anyone else has run into something similar.

Thanks for your help.

I’m undecided

Have you tried turning off all installed Firefox addons?! It you turn them off and the box dissapears then you know one of the addons is causing it. At this point you only need to find out which one ;) You can start turning each addon back on one by one and see if the gray box reappears.

I’m hoping you find out

I have this problem too. I've turned off all Firefox extensions/add-ons, and restarted, and the problem persists.

I’m frustrated
