Window doesn't stay in a position (Precise, Classic)

Although I've started to see this phenomenon after I upgraded my notebook from Oneiric to Precise, I'm not sure what is influencing.
(1st one of the following image) I dragged the window on right to the bottom. Then while I move around cursor, (2nd image) the window moves back to the top rim.

enter image description here

In this example the one on left remains at the bottom for some reason. And this can happen to other application window (e.g. Firefox, System Monitor etc.) Any idea??

(Environment) NVIDIA Driver version: 295.40, Gnome Classic (when using Ubuntu as a desktop style, this issue didn't occur)

I was just having the exact same problem, it appears to be a Compiz issue. Not sure how to fix it and still run compiz, but switching to metacity was a good solution for me:

Press Alt+F2 to open Run, and type in

metacity --replace
