Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

Visiting some websites, for example www.topgear.com or www.autotrader.co.uk, some banner ads are flash adverts that rollover onto a larger advert.

However, within firefox (Linux), the area of the larger advert is shown immediately in a large white area, even if the advert has not been rollover-ed.

The result is some websites have text missing due to a white area of potential advert filling, which cannot be removed.
