Why does my new FF3.6 stutter and blink when clicking between pages?
Why does my new FF3.6 frequently stutter and blink when clicking between pages? It's extremely annoying.
Also why does my email sometimes force a stupid thing called quick link when I try to insert an apostrophe while writing - also extremely annoying to the point where I just have stop writing, cancel the email, to shut down/open FF and pray it works again.
Also, why does my page zoom keep dropping back to small on the new FF3.6? I need large settings to be able to read.
Also, is there a way I can go back to my old FF?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
- Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems
- Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
- Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
- Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
If you need to adjust the font size on websites then look at:
- Default FullZoom Level - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/6965
- NoSquint - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2592
There are other things that need attention:
Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks that you should update.
