uninstall Firefox. Then Delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files(x86) Then restart system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup. (Note: This should be Pinned and run Weekly, If never done below expect 10's of gig's) Then run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Note: your Firefox Profile is saved. But you should make a back up before you do : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles

Also make sure that you run Firefox in desktop mode and not in tablet mode.

the above did not solve my problem and as I said a week ago, i have the same problem with three different PCs, one of which had a clean install of firefox v57.0.2. any suggestions?

- Do the machines all have the same graphics card or chipset? - Does the issue occur in Firefox’s Safe Mode? - Could you have any mutual extensions or script blocking software on the machines? - Did you recently update all of them (or not instead) to e.g. a Creators Update? - Perhaps it’s related to a large font setting for Windows?

I would also have a look at this question to see if that offers any help.

If a page has the style rule overflow:hidden applied to the entire page, then no scroll bars are displayed. But you would expect all browsers to interpret the rule the same way, so... not sure what's going on.

Can you provide the address to the page with the problem links, or are all links affected?
