Do you have middle-click-pastes-url enabled?  I find that sometimes when 
I'm scrolling really quickly with the mouse wheel in any UNIX browser 
that has this enabled, I often click the wheel without knowing it, which 
takes me back to the URL copied in X's buffer, namely the one I just 
hilighted in the location bar to get to the page I'm on now.
