I've seen some solutions that mentioned creating userChrome and userContent files but they were outdated and I think there should be simpler solution. A friend of mine has basic Firefox version and she said she has never met with such problem.

I've tried:

  • Clearing cache and cookies
  • Creating some Chrome files
  • Disabling addons

I don't think it's Firefox Developer Edition's problem as the issue has been persistent for some time/updates now.

Does it happen with every page you load? You could try changing the background colour in the following setting in about:config. Open a new tab, enter about:config in the address bar, accept the risk and find the following: browser.display.background_color I suggest #e6e6e6 for a light grey, otherwise search for colour names.

Sadly the white flash happen even whilst starting the browser before the New Page loaded. I'll try your advice, I think the only way to solve it is to reinstall the browser.
