"Community Toolbars" are known to cause that issue in Firefox 31. You have two of them installed, although one is disabled.

Installl Converter Community Toolbar - is enabled - disable that add-on and see if that solves your issue with tabs. If not, remove that extension along with the Vuze Remote Community Toolbar, which is currently disabled.

Hello,

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. It is troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons. To start Firefox in SafeMode hold the Shift key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut, or use the Help menu item, clicking on "Restart with Add-ons Disabled...", while Firefox is running.

To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.

If working in SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, try to see which one. http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes May also be the Hardware Acceleration.

Please let us know.
