Since I have changed to Firefox, the tab descriptions and the visible bookmarks are very blurry. The loaded web pages are fine and the text is sharp.

Try to disable hardware acceleration.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

Thanks to all. I messed around with it a little. I used to have Firefox a few years ago and when I returned today and reinstalled, it accessed my old settings. When I went in and changed back to Default settings, everything cleared up immediately.
