Firefox 2.0.0.4 text display bug (?)

[coffeelover]

I noticed what seems to be a bug with my Firefox (latest version 2.0.0.4) when reading an article in http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2007/Jun/0528.html. I noticed it previously, but didn't bother with it.

The last sentence in the paragraph seems to be a bit lighter than the rest (first graphic). Some scrolling and screen refresh seems to fix it (see second graphic). But the problem reappears again. Does anybody else have the same problem? I'm using a macbook now, but I noticed the same problem in my old powerbook.

Thanks.

I've noticed this before reading other Web pages but never really let it bother me. In fact, more often than not I get the reverse: some parts of the text appear bold - but scrolling up and down (forcing a repaint) 'fixes' it.

I just chalk it up to one of those weird, impossible to replicate (with 100% consistency) bugs that probably have something to do with Firefox (Gecko)'s rendering and possibly Cocoa's LCD text font smoothing or something...

Thanks, I thought this weird problem only happens to me.
