Having a lot of problems with images, when I go from one window to the other pictures will have scrambled with each other. Sometimes an image will scramble itself just by dragging the cursor over it

Other things that happen are on youtube when I open the page a lot of the thumbnails will be the same and on the wrong video and when I go over it with my cursor they'll change to the right one.

Another thing is sometimes the images will be in my scroll bar and toolbars all scrambled up.

I've already reset firefox, deleted cookies, cleared cache, updated flash and java.

This all seems to have started when firefox updated for me which was about two days go.

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.
