Rivka, It happens to me occasionally and I'm in the latest version of Safari. It's not browser specific.

I always upgrade as soon as it tells me to. Maybe it happens before FF tells me to upgrade? I'm usually online for a little while before the box comes up telling me to upgrade. I'll have to pay attention the next time it happens.

Well, yes. My iBook G4 is about two, maybe three, steps behind the curve and it's as upgraded as it can get. I'm running OS 10.3.9 and FF 3 requires 10.4 and up.
Yes, I need a new computer. And as soon as I get the money together, I'll have one.
I'm using Firefox 2. And yes, it happens on all pages within My Books/Home. As to the bookshelves box, I understand how to close it; it's just annoying because there I am on a shelf, maybe down at book 50, click the edit link under bookshelves, then have to page all the way up to find the shelf menu and all the way down to get back to the book 50. I just forget to close it.
It happens to me periodically. Refreshing the page works, sometimes if I move my cursor around like crazy it works, reloading the page works re getting rid of it. If I don't do any of those things it stays. This (for me) has been going on for quite a while but it doesn't happen that frequently.
It's possibly a bug, a brief test with the Explore link doesn't produce the same results for me.
Which browser are you using, Lindig? And does it happen no matter which page you're on?
There is a "close" link at the top and bottom of the edit bookshelves drop down menu. You have to be all the way at the top or bottom of the menu to see it.I've have the same problem with the drop downs on the main page, though. I'd rather have to let my cursor hover for a second or two to drop it down. As it is, sometimes I feel like all I need to do is get near it to have it bother me for a while.
If my cursor accidentally passes over "Explore" the menu pops up and hangs there. It won't close unless I (1) do it manually, or (2) click to a different page. None of the other menus do this. Is it a bug?
Of course, the edit bookshelves box does it too, obscuring the search box behind it. I assumed that once I had clicked my bookshelf choice, it would close. Maybe there should be a "done" button, so you could add/delete to your heart's content, click done, and the box would close.
