I have had similar problems in the past...  Don't have any idea what caused it - perhaps scrolling too
fast 'lost' the overlay?? - could scroll back past where it was lost, then it would be okay for a while...  
It also seemed to have more problems during 'prime time' evening internet hours...
I currently have version 4.2.0180.1134(beta) at home and don't seem to have any problems lately,
though (not sure what latest version is, however - didn't check tonight before answering)...
Doubt if that is much help, but...................................

Happy trails!!!
