Installed latest Firefox version, was advised to download latest adobe flash version, did: firefox now displays only skeletal lines with missing buttons etc. Tried switching to older version 3.6, same result! Very ugly, rather distracting, I wonder what else is not working properly as well.

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

Thanks cor-el. I mistakenly took that checkbox out as I did not read it properly & assumed it was referring to links only. No, it referes to the whole page.

To anyone who has this problem: THIS IS THE SOLUTION!!

Thanks again.

Sorry Swarnava, that was not the solution, the error was also present when Firefox 8 was running. If you are interested in the solution, please read cor-el's post & my reply to that. But thanks for taking the time to post your idea! Cheers.
