Tiny boxes/Big headahes
Tiny numbered squares appear to the left of text phrases throughout the screen whenever I use Mozilla Firefox as my browser -- what are they and how do I get rid of them? They often obscure the adjacent text -- very frustrating.

Missing icons are usually supplied by a font that is downloaded from the server (@font-face) as you might see by little boxes that show the hex code of the characters instead. If you have a font installed that covers this Unicode range then you may see a real (CJK) character and not the little box with the CSS code.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.

You can check the gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled pref on the about:config page and make sure that it is set to true (if necessary double-click the line to toggle its value to true).
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
This will change in Firefox 41:
