Every time I go to http://www.computerandvideogames.com/ (CVG) and open several links in the website (using tabbed browsing), the page design starts screwing up. Sometimes text boxes and link boxes start jumping around to different locations in the page, and random white areas start appearing all over the place. The only thing that happens almost every single time however (and every time i have at least four or five tabs open at the same time from CVG) is that whenever I highlight text from the page, the highlighted text becomes invisible - either by becoming highlighted by gray or white, or becoming the same color as the background - and the majority of the pages become white. sometimes the page will have the top-left corner displayed in the bottom-right side, but no matter what happens it become illegible and frustrating. To make matters worse, at this point all other open tabs from CVG are filled with white, and any other website open will have this problem if you highlight text in the webpage. In fact it just happened to me when i tested it out one more time and came back here. The text i'm typing now was invisible until I closed all the CVG pages and switched back and forth from a google tab.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
If it makes a difference, my tabbed browsing is set to load in the background. 

1. go to http://www.computerandvideogames.com/ 
2. open as many tabs from that page as possible (to get the worst effects). The easiest thing is to just open all the news links that they have (about 7 or 8) in new tabs.
3. go to any random one and highlight text on the page
4. If the results aren't showing, open several more links from the CVG home page (and keep that tab open so that you can load more links).
Actual Results:  
Nothing at first, but when i opened a couple more tabs and viewed them, what I describe in the details happens. 

Expected Results:  
For the webpages to display normally.

Some of their pages have F4M content, which is what is triggering this.
