    So, you are on the beta channel, correct? Did this happen after the daily update? If it did, just reinstall firefox 32. Just download it, and install on top of your current installation. I'm on the Aurora channel, and if I have any problems, a reinstall on top of my current install usually fixes my problem.

    if you have LastPass addon, please disable it and test if the issue happens without it or not

    Very simple solution. Turn off hardware acceleration feature from firefox preferences and your problem will be fixed.
