Safari window "stuck" on dual monitor

I have dual monitors set up as an extended desktop. Normally I can drag windows from one monitor to the other and back again. Today I dragged a Safari browser window from the right monitor to the left, and it wouldn't drag back again. It will drag offscreen to the right, but it "bumps" against the left hand border when I drag in that direction. I went into the monitor settings and set to "mirror", then back to extended, and that got my window back. But the next time I dragged it, it got stuck again. I've quit Safari, repaired permissions, run Cocktail and restarted. Still stuck. Anybody know what's up with this?

This may be your solution (or not), but I see this as well, but usually when the window is near the top of the screen. This is because the Menu takes up space that windows cannot invade and act as a block. Dragging the window slightly down and over gets around this.
