When I am searching for something I get to a site and the pointer can be anywhere and then a small box appears under the pointer with words for the last tab clicked on. If I move the pointer the box disappears and then reappears at the new location. How can I stop that from happening??

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