Does it still happen with hardware acceleration disabled?

Does the page keep changing above the puzzle? This might happen if there is an image slideshow or something strange with a banner ad. I think that would normally only cause vertical motion, but if the change above causes a scroll bar to appear or disappear, it could also cause horizontal motion.

Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or if userChrome.css/userContent.css is causing the problem.

  • switch to the Default System theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Troubleshoot Mode start window
