background colors
Background colors are not showing in Firefox. I'm running version 35.0, but it was likes this from version 32.0. My operating system is Windows 7, 64-bit. This is also the case in IE. Chrome is fine.
This is how a website looks in Firefox: http://imgur.com/VllPmWH

Hello,
Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache. Note: This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to. To clear cache and cookies do the following:
- Click the menu button , choose History, and then "Clear Recent History...".
- Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
- Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
- From the details list, check Cache and Cookies and uncheck everything else.
- Now click the "Clear Now" button.
Further information can be found in the Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

I tried clearing the browsing history already. I did it again. just to make sure. That didn't work. Thanks though.
Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own colors.
- Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"
Note that these settings affect background images.

Thanks, but that didn't fix it. How can I completely clear my system of all firefox files after I have uninstalled it? I was thinking that if I start fresh, that might fix it.
Did you check the high contrast settings in Windows?
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
