And here's what I see in my Firefox window every time I click on a link in another application, until the target page loads.

I also sometimes see:
  - a context menu, immediately after opening it
  - the entire content area in the Firefox window, after activating it
being rendered black for a fraction of a second before the proper content is rendered.

Actually, even if I open a link in a new tab in Firefox, and then switch to it, I see that garbled image until the page loads.

Requesting a regression window as suggested by Jeff.

This issue appears to have been fixed by the 31.1.1 update.

I still see the issues described in comment 4.

Seems like this issue fell through the cracks. Botond, are you able to reproduce this anymore?

Comment 9

[Botond Ballo [:botond] [away until Oct 19]]

As mentioned in comment 7, I still see the issues described in comment 4, but as that's a different issue from the one in this bug's description, I'll file a new bug for it.
