I'm using the Windows Classic theme with no Aero enabled, so that may be a factor. I was able to replicate with no other applications running, the latest video drivers, and a fresh install of Firefox. There is only one extension installed in Firefox and that is Kaspersky's, but I disabled the extension and completely exited from Kaspersky Internet Security completely, and the render issues still appear.

@reporter
It seems to disable ClearType
Could you test with ClearType enabled.

Confirmed that ClearType is the culprit. When ClearType is toggled on, pages display correctly, and when ClearType is toggled off everything goes haywire. I don't even need to quit Firefox or reload tabs to see the rendering go haywire after toggling the ClearType checkbox.

OK, so, this seems to be duplication of bug 1435472
