Cannot enter data in text box
When visiting a website like mls.ca for example I am unable to click or type in the text box to select a location. The hand appears when hovering over the text box but the cursor fails to show, the click is ignored.
I removed Firefox using Revo uninstaller to ensure all data was removed. Surprise, surprise, on re-installing everything I had before was back including this issue.
It works fine in Opera.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (3-bar Menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: 3-bar Menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

Firefox 45 is a beta 2 version currently, still being developed. Have you tried the latest release version, Firefox 44.0? Or an earlier version, like Firefox 43.0.4?
