Firefox does not always cover the complete screen in fullscreen mode after it has been terminated before in full screen mode. I use the autohide feature of the windows task bar. After a restart of firefox the fullscreen window still has a visible and defunct title bar. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. activate autohide feature of the windows task bar (mine is at the bottom)
2. open firefox
3. maximise window
4. acivate fullscreen mode (F11)
5. exit firefox using Alt-F4
6. restart firefox
7. activate fullscreen mode

Actual Results:  
The firefox window does not cover the whole screen in fullscreen mode. Instead it still has a title bar. This bar cannot be used in any way: the window buttons are defunct and the window cannot be dragged with the mouse.

I have noticed that Firefox in my Virtualbox was not updated, but I can confirm this bug also for current versions:
