whenever i snap my firefox to half page it puts a blue box around it. also recently my close/minimize/elarge buttons have started to look different than they do on all my other applications, and i dont know how to fix both of these problems. im running windows 7 and this problem just started last night.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

Your Firefox looks like an Aero "Basic" themed version, but how it did become Basic when the rest of the OS is not Basic? Hmmm... could you right-click the shortcut you use the start Firefox, choose Properties, then check the Compatibility tab to see whether there's anything special set there?
