Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Window Aero transparency is a big problem matched only by Mozilla inflicting the same torment to Windows 7 users.

How to turn disable transparency of Aero Glass and get closer to classic, while maintaining Windows 7 changes. I still have a problem with Alert and text boxes but no problem where you describe.

Steps to turn off transparency in Windows 7 (not perfect)

  • Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Personalization
  • Pick a Theme or current theme
  • at the bottom click on Advanced Windows Color and Appearance
  • choose a color, change intensity to about 75% (experiment)
  • turn off the transparency checkmark
