Firefox behaving strangely after upgrade to Windows 8.1
I have recently upgraded to Windows 8.1. After the upgrade was complete, the first thing that I did was install Firefox. Since then I have noticed some strange behaviors within Firefox:
1. The spell checking function no longer works. (Consistantly reproducible) 2. Highlighted text often disappears (Sporadic) 3. My blinking cursor will often disappear after I reposition it to edit text (Random)
I've never had any problems with Firefox before. So I suspect that these symptoms are related to each other somehow. Please help.

Under Advanced, Select General. Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.
Poke around safe web sites. Are there any problems?
