This looks like a blocked ad.

Did you try to right-click this area to check with the built-in Inspector which element gets selected?

The plugin icon on the location bar is gray and that would mean that no plugins are blocked currently, so it isn't Flash content.

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.
