The websites can not be shown properly, other applications works fine, including Safari. So this is only Firefox problem.
3 days ago, Firefox has started to display weirdly. All pages showed diagonally with left side up and right side down. So all the letters are showed on a slant, all images smudged/collapsed. I can not read text and links seem to get out of (original) position.
For example, when I open Gmail and click 'compose' it won't work as the proper link to 'compose' is somewhere else than slanting letters showed 'compose'.
It's hard to explain, I have never had this kind of problem with any applications. Other applications works fine, including Safari works alright. I uninstalled and re-installed Firefox but no good. I still see slanting pages.
I use Mac OS X 10.6

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

Hi there,
Thank you so much for your post.
I've tried safe mode and seemed it worked with it. So I made disable hardware as you suggested. Now Firefox is working perfectly as before!
Thank you again for your help! I really appreciate it as I had no idea what the problem was.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
