Recently whenever I left-click the back button, there is a drop-down menu that appears. It indicates that it is only supposed to show up if I either right-click or click and hold the left mouse button (also I have to click elsewhere to make it disappear), and it's annoying the heck out of me. How do I make it stop appearing for left-clicks?

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