I keep getting alternating brown squares as artifacts all over my computer when browsing with Firefox. The squares are concentrated on the bookmark area on the left of the screen and also the menu section on the top of the screen. This has been a problem since Firefox 18 and is still a problem with Firefox 20; enough of a problem that I am considering a browser switch. We have another computer that has the same problem and that computer has a different graphics card. Any help someone can provide would be appreciated.

Same problem here! I run an Ati 7850 on Windows 8 pro 64X and am currently experiencing the same problem since i think the latest Firefox update.

Thanks a bunch! I have an AMD Radeon HD 6620G somewhat similar to monicard's graphics card. After updating it and upgrading to Firefox 23 Beta 7, I had the exact same problem. Luckily, disabling Hardware Acceleration fixed everything perfectly.

Thanks again Tylerdowner!!
