If I hover over a link, I expect the pointer to change to a finger and any hover effects show up (especially tool tips)

This used to work and is ok in Safari

-> click Firefox button and click Exit/Quit

Start Firefox in Safe Mode by Holding down the Option key while starting your Mozilla application.

As an alternate method, go to Utilities (in the Applications folder) and open Terminal, then run:

   /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -safe-mode 

-> Firefox Safe Mode window will appear -> DON'T SELECT ANY OPTIONS, just click Continue in Safe Mode

Does it still happen when you are Browsing in Safe Mode??
