I have the following extensions:

- TargetAlert 0.7.2
- Tabbrowser Preferences 0.9.91
- Yahoo Companion  0.5.4.20041020

I also have the following live feeds:

- http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer.rss
- http://slashdot.org/index.rss
- http://my.rsscache.com/www.tcmagazine.info/backend.php
- http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/topstories

The version of Firefox is:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.3)
Gecko/20041026 Firefox/1.0RC1

If I get the strange behavior today, I will send the dump along.
