I am using Windows 7 on my desk top computer. The top area of the desk top is visible at the top of my Mozilla Firefox browser and all web pages. It is opaque
The web pages do not completely fill the screen at the top of my computer screen as I can see the top of my desk top page. It is opaque but still visible. I would like to have the entire screen (the bookmarks still visible along the side, of course) and not see the background of the desk top. Thank you.

Try to disable transparency in Windows, see:
Right click in a free space on your desktop.
Left click on Personalization.
There are four options at the bottom of the screen, choose "Window Color and Appearance".
Select a border color
Uncheck: "Enable transparency"
Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
