Have installed version 4, and ever since small laptop is blurry even after turning on clear type. Also firefox browser page no longer fits the screen. Version 4 is a piece of crap!

Tools > Options > Advanced > General sub-tab

Uncheck "Use hardware acceleration when available"

I think you need to restart Firefox to see the change.
