If the problem continues, update McAfee SiteAdvisor. If it continues, disable it.

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Options/Preferences -> General: Performance
remove checkmark: [ ] "Use recommended performance settings"
"Use hardware acceleration when available"
You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver and check for hardware acceleration related issues.

Since your recent update I can not use FB. Haven't tried clicking in any other sites yet. Please review and help me. Very frustrating.

I removed the check mark for Use Recommended and "Use hardware acceleration when available" popped up checked. Am I supposed to undo that as well? I am going to restart and see what happens. I'll let you know.
