I just upgraded to Windows 8 and loaded Firefox 18 - I imported my bookmarks HTML file and the bookmarks on the left display either garbage or the wrong title until I mouse over them. They then display correctly unless I mouse over them again. My tabs display bookmark titles until I mouse over them.

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Could you try version 18.0.1? Also, please provide us with screen shots? And, you can check if your add-ons are causing this as well.

Try the Firefox Safe Mode to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.

(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)

  • You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the Shift key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
  • Or use the Help menu item and click on the Restart with Add-ons Disabled... menu item while Firefox is running.

Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode" To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again. If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

Please follow the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article for that.

When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.

Thx. for the suggestion. Disabling HW acceleration appears to resolve the issue. However, the issue appeared just a few releases ago. Sorry, can't tell you which... No changes to the video card or driver in between.
