I need help. When I open a jpg image on my computer using FF16 'Open File', I get random pixels where the image should be. I'm hoping someone else had this same problem and came up with a solution. Either a hardware problem or a corrupted Windows file. Thanks for any help.

Make sure that you are allowing all images to load and that images from specific sites are not being blocked:

   In Firefox, look under "Tools -> Options -> Content" and
       Make sure that "Load images automatically" is checked.
       Open [Exceptions] and remove any sites being blocked.
       Use about:config to make sure that the preference permissions.default.image is set to "1", the default value (right-click and select "Reset" if any other value is shown). [2]

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
