Subject: Firescrolling [Firefox 1.0]
__Summary
Remember my Internet Explorer "scrollbar exploit" based on http-equiv's
"What a Drag"? When will people ever learn that "unusual user
interaction"
can be hidden by common tasks...
Let's combine fireflashing, firetabbing, xul and javascript to run
arbitrary
code by dragging a scrollbar two times.
