In Firefox, I can't read some menu icons at Yahoo.com ; but on Chrome, they're OK: WHY?
I have a mailbox account at Yahoo.com. When I look at it using the Firefox browser, I can't read what the icons are supposed to do, because the icons are replaced by cryptic indications. See the first image. [I'm not sure it's uploading properly; if not, take my word that I'm getting little boxes with letters like E055, E01B, and so on, instead of little envelopes and normal icons for menus.]
In the Chrome browser, the icons show up properly. This is shown in the second image [if there is a 2nd image]
Do I need to add something to use the Yahoo site?
Thanks, Neal J. King

I did everything except turn off the HW accelerator. Now the menu items show up!
Thanks.
Good to hear, Safe surfing.
Missing icons are usually supplied by a font that is downloaded from the server (@font-face) as you might see by little boxes that show the hex code of the characters instead.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.

You can check the gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled pref on the about:config page and make sure that it is set to true (if necessary double-click the line to toggle its value).
