Tab doesnt refresh properly

Since updating to FF 3.6, I have noticed that the right side of my tabs do not refresh on navigating pages, particularly if the text is longer than the tab itself. From what I can tell (though not 100% sure), this only seems to be an issue with the first tab. For example, I might go from a page titled "Website 1234567" to "Website 8901234" - but what I will see on moving page is "Website 8901267". Only when I hover the cursor over the tab will it refresh correctly. Is this a general bug, or is there an individual issue?

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

The most likely cause of this problem is an add-on. See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems for instructions on testing whether extensions are causing the problem.

If disabling an extension fixes it, let us know which one it was.
