Find keeps turning on by itself. If I turn it off by clicking on the x it comes right back on. I have to click on and hit escape.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
