After upgrading to Firefox 10, the bookmark menu (and other UI features) began to flicker when selected. This only happens on my secondary monitor. It does not affect my primary monitor. It makes Firefox unusable on the secondary monitor.

Try to disable hardware acceleration.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.
