I updated to the latest version and ever since, I cannot click on certain links on websites. Not even on Monzilla.com! Why?

For example, on Facebook, I cannot click on the "message, notification, and friend request" icon links. It acts as though they arent links at all. Same with other sites. A link that would take me to another part of the website does absolutely nothing when I click on it.

That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar or the Babylon extension that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links and buttons in that part of the screen not clickable.

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).
