I upgraded at Christmas with a SSD & Windows 7. Since then when I try to type in text boxes such as this the curser will move back or forward a few lines. I've been advised turn off the firefox spell check but this hasn't helped.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Try to disable hardware acceleration.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.
