The Right click context menu, and menu butons are all yellow?
The right click context menu, and the Drop down menus for the tool bar, all have Yellow Text. Everything else is working normally, and the Yellow text is un related to windows itself, as Windows still has the standard coloring for the menus and Right click context. im stumped.

i have latest version of firefox. 11
no virus detected with Malwarbytes, or Avast.
setting check through windows shows no carry over from a botched windows theme setting.
its cosmetic issue mostly, not harmful.

Hmmm, that shouldn't happen. It's difficult to change the text colors in the interface without installing a theme or an add-on that lets you tweak the menus.
Can you try switching between the default theme and your current theme?
Do any of those extensions let you change display settings?

Are you currently using a persona ([have had same persona for ages so its not that])?
You may have installed a persona that isn't working properly.
You can uninstall your current Persona and revert to the Default theme (Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
See:
It's not related to Personas, I changed it quick and still i am Plagued with urine colored buttons
I disabled all themes reverting to standard Firefox theme, now the Menu buttons in the top Tool bar itself are yellow, and surounded by a strange grey box, not just the drop down menu buttons.
enabled Darkfox persona, The Top menu bar reverts to white text, consistent with theme, check of buttons, Yellow Context buttons still.
re-check of a windows desk top right click Context menu. [fire fox entirely minimized] no sign of a problem...its isolated to Firefox, hopefully. tabs are still nice and black...
[ has windows vista btw ]
Taking a quick look at Control Panel>Appearance And Personalization>Personalization>Window Color and Appearance>Classic Appearance Properties>Advanced [read below paragraph quick, relevant] > Menu... settings all normal...no sign of Yellow anything anywhere in ANY setting, which makes sense as its Confined to Firefox
doesn't get far enough to go further into settings, due to a IM beep....I decide to Right click again and problems gone, right now im all WTF i cant make this shit up. i disable the Persona again, crossing my fingers and ....that fawking Grey box is still there around my menu bar...thankfully yellow text is gone....for now shoulda screenshot-ed while it was yellow.
The problem seems to have resolved itself, but i am still needing to know HOW it happened, buttons dont turn piss yellow by themselves, and it was unrelated to Personas, and i still have a semi pesky Grey box around my menu bar in standard Firefox, Personas are disabled. right now im back to my Dark fox ^___^ and every things Kosher. problem still exists to lesser extent.
Screenie of Grey Box, and ......Now Fe-d up tabs h. howed my tabs go light blue...unless its SUPPOSED to be like that.....WTF!!

Which Windows theme are you using? In the past Firefox had some problems with "high contrast" themes. Not sure whether that is an issue in Firefox 11.
Areo, not high contrast
WTF!!! its fawking back.
Ok VERY strange now
back to Taking a quick look at Control Panel>Appearance And Personalization>Personalization>Window Color and Appearance>Classic Appearance Properties>Advanced
the menu setting is...yellow....
though the only thing effected is firefox, NO OTHER PROGRAM IS EFFECTED.
-eye twitch-
reseting setting to Black has no effect whatsoever
it only is in fire fox however that i have yellow menu and context text...no where else. at all
