When using drop/pull down menus eg: Bookmarks, the top few items do not display correctly. If I mouse over they appear, but as soon as I move the mouse elsewhere, they vanish again. I do not have the same problem on any other applications eg: Internet Explorer. I have done a Firefox > Troubleshooting Information > Reset Firefox which made no difference. This used to work OK, I think it may have occurred since upgrading to 20.0.1 but cannot be sure. I am running Windows XP Version 2002 SP3 Thanks
