When I open a new tab a "Messages From Firefox" bar appears at the bottom, I can close that bar but when I drag the tab to make a new window that same space is now occupied by a white bar that I can't get rid of.

Solution choisie

If the two monitors have different screen dimensions then such issues can happen.

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox to see if that has effect.

Close and restart Firefox after modifying the setting for changes to take effect.

You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver and check for hardware acceleration related issues.
