hello Ultim4t3, maybe that's an issue with hardware acceleration - please try updating your graphics driver or in case there is no new version available at the moment or this doesn't solve the issue, disable hardware acceleration in the firefox menu ≡ > options > advanced > general (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

thanks philipp, i tired your suggestion of disabling the hardware acceleration and it worked! i'll keep this for now, till i find another way to do it =) !
