My firefox is more than messed up

So this problem is almost not to be explained. Please watch the video.

I used youtube because it has a lot of thumbnails. I guess you could say... images mess up, icons like the arrow in my scrollbar get switched by random images in the webpage, my tab bar gets messy as you see in the video...

Since it's happening all over the browser, in the tab bar, the scroll bar, etc.. I thought maybe it's malware but I completely scanned my computer.

It also isn't an add-on because I added add-ons after this problem occuring in my browser.

I guess it must be some very very weird bug that somehow got into my browser. Question is: how do I fix it.

You had me at the site icon fracturing all over the active tab... most likely an incompatibility with your graphics card/chipset driver software. Other users with that issue have worked around it temporarily by disabling Firefox from using hardware acceleration:

"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced

On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"

This takes effect the next time you exit Firefox and start it up again. Any difference?


Since hardware acceleration improves the appearance of fonts and animations, you may want to check your computer manufacturer's website to see whether any graphics card/chipset driver updates are available for your system.
