That issue can be caused by the AVG Safe Search extension


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).

Thanks!! It was an extension that my computer was running for "suspicious websites" lol. I had another safe link program running at the same time so thats why it was not working. If anyone else is having this problem, check through the extensions to see if it is one of those bugging up your computer Link: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting-extensions-themes?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes#w_disable-all-extensions
