If I open up web sites or applications and I click to close them from the navigation bar at the top nothing happens. Another example is I use My Yahoo and there is a mail button on top - when I click on that nothing happens - including clicking on all the other buttons.

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).

Try to disable hardware acceleration.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.
