when I scroll over a drop down menu, for example when I right click and put the cursor over one of the options it goes black. If I scroll over one of the menu bar drop down menus as I move over one of the options it stays highlighted in gray. I am running firefox 4 and have already tried turning on the menu bar and turning off hardware acceleration

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).

I tried using safe mode but the problem persisted. I guess it could be something with my graphics card. The problem does not impede my ability to use firefox but it is kind of annoying. I also had problems with firefox 4 but they were all resolved by turning off hardware acceleration and turning the menu bar back on.
