Chosen solution

Do you have any "speed up Firefox" extensions or add-ons (check in Tools > Add-ons). Often these kinds of extensions will change nglayout.initialpaint.delay and it can get screwed up.

Try uninstalling or disabling those extensions. You may also need to reset all of your user-set prefs:

  1. Go to Help > Restart with Add-ons disabled
  2. In the dialog that pops up, check "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults"
  3. Click "Make changes and restart"
