You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

You can try to disable OMTC and leave hardware acceleration in Firefox enabled.

Hi thanks for the reply, but I have uninstalled and reinstalled again and I do not have any plugins/addons other than one detected by Firefox (i.e. Adobe, Bing bar, skype, ADB), and all these plugins are disabled.
