Hyperlinks won't load in 6.0 unless my laptop's cursor is in motion. Anyone else having this issue?

Hello, I upgraded from 5.0 to 6.0 today, and I noticed that my pages weren't loading unless I moved my cursor. It was obvious Firefox was gathering the right information because it displayed the "I'm thinking" cursor, but the pages I had just clicked on wouldn't load until I moved my cursor. For pages that loaded in multiple layers, like Wikipedia articles, I had to sit there making little touchpad circles until my pages fully came up. This was happening on every page. Now I've reinstalled 5.0 and I'm having no problems whatsoever, so it was only in 6.0. Has anyone else had this experience?

I'm running Windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron 1545 with no hardware mods. My interface and drivers are all up to date as far as I know, and I never had touchpad issues before.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
