When ever i press back in Windows Outlook (www.hotmail.com) while being in fullscreen, it instantly crashes.

If i keep the window minimized, then there are small black glitches

Try to set the gfx.content.azure.enabled pref to false or if this didn't help disable Direct2D by setting the gfx.direct2d.disabled pref to true on the about:config page and leave hardware acceleration otherwise enabled.

That way you still have the benefit from hardware acceleration, but may not suffer from rendering issues.

You can also try to uninstall Windows update KB2670838 if you have this update.

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

Im not sure whether or not i should reopen this, or if i should create a new one. But after following the last solution (that fixed the original problem) everytime when pressing back mouse button, there are small black glitches popping up for like, ½ a second, any advices towards fixing these?
