Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Thanks for the reply.I was actually thinking that that could be an issue.But,I've still got a bad feeling it's something deeper.Kind of wonder sometimes whether it might also be the version that I use.You see,I use the beta version.

You will still have to try Safe mode or you can try a new test profile to check if it still happens. Not all extensions are compatible with the current beta version.

Issues can the caused by hardware acceleration, so check that first.
