This might be a bit tricky to understand, but here goes. The problem is that the big comment number you see on the right hand side of each comment is spanning over your link. The link in there in Firefox; it's just technically <i>behind</i> your comment number. The proper fix would be to adjust the way the comment numbers display with some crazy z-indexing. But a much easier way would be to simply throw one or two forced line breaks (br) in your template between where it says [li class="commentbody" ...] and the first [a class="commentlink" ...]. I can't show you here since Wordpress won't let me post HTML like that, so shoot me an e-mail if you don't understand where the brs should go.
