Why do I get a grayed out screen with an "X" in the corner when I go from tab to tab?
When leave one tab and go to another, then, come back to the previous tab, it's grayed out kind of with big X in the corner.I click the X and all is fine. I don't get these thing with Chrome but I'd rather use Firefox if this would stop or I could make it stop somehow.

Can you attach a screenshot?

- Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot
- Make sure that you do not exceed the maximum size of 1 MB
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

Did you try Safe Mode?
no, how do you do that? what will that show/prove?
It's a basic troubleshooting mode. Firefox SafeMode.
If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)
You can use one of these to start Firefox in Safe Mode:
- On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
- On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
- Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
I think I've found the extension that was the culprit...thank you!
